Subject: Whippoorwill Calll From: topical tom Date: 17 Jun 17 - 01:08 PM Many years ago I heard this song but I have retained only the chorus which is: Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill When you hear the fiurst whippoorwill call Meet me, darling, please meet me When you hear the first whippoorwill call. I would love to have the complete lyrics and a viodeo would be great! |

No joy finding the lyrics yet, tt. You may have to resort to transcribing them. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: When You Hear The First Whippoorwill Cal From: Jim Dixon Date: 25 Jun 17 - 09:00 AM The song was originally called THE WHIP-POOR-WILL'S SONG. It was written by Harrison Millard and published in 1865. Lyrics and links to sheet music have been posted in another thread: Lyr Req: Whip-Poor-Will's Song (Harrison Millard). It is a very common thing that compound words that we now spell without hyphens were once spelled with hyphens. This is a good thing to keep in mind when searching for old music. |
