[Chorus:]
There's a ramshackle shack in old Caroline
It's callin' me back to the woman of mine
Guess if I had the wings of a beautiful dove
Don't you know I'd fly away to the woman I love

[Verse 1:]
When the whippoorwills called on the hills far away
We're gonna sing a little song we're gonna hear them say
My love for you will never ever die
We bid everything sail away to the sweet by and by
Those two brown eyes that sparkle with love
Came down to me from heaven above
Guess if I had the wings of a beautiful dove
Don't you know I'd fly away to the woman I love

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
When the whippoorwills called on the hills far away
We're gonna sing a little song we're gonna hear them say
My love for you will never ever die
We bid everything sail away to the sweet by and by
