Springtime is near, my darling You say, that you are going away My heart will be with you my darling And I'm counting now the days I know that soon I'll have to travel I know I'm over the hill I feel so all alone, my darling said, she'd be gone When I heard that first whippoorwill The flowers are blooming, little darling With the budding of the trees I hear the night birds a crying I know that they are warning me I know that soon I'll have to travel I know I'm over the hill I feel so all alone, my darling said, she'd be gone When I heard that first whippoorwill Our love was planted, little darling Just like the farmer plants his grain But there will never be a harvest On the hills the whippoorwill now sing I know that soon I'll have to travel I know I'm over the hill I feel so all alone, my darling said, she'd be gone When I heard that first whippoorwill
