Does anyone know the lyrics to the song called ''the whippoorwill''. The only lyrics I remember are ''whippoorwill, whippoorwill, the whippoorwill is calling my name''. I hope someone can help me. The last time I heard this song was in the 70s.

Sounds like it could be this: Back Where I Belong by Darryl Worley There’s a little shack tucked back in the timber It wasn’t much back then but it was home Sometimes it hurts me to remember Just how long I’ve been gone Oh how I miss the smell of mama’s kitchen And the way she used to sing those gospel songs Right now I wish that me and dad were fishin’ So I could tell him, he was right, and I was wrong Big city nights and lights surround me Feels like a prison to my soul I can hear a whippoorwill calling me home Back where I belong Now all the rockin’ chairs are empty I hate to think how tall the weeds have grown I’d give back everything the good lord gave me If I could just go back to where I belong Big city nights and lights surround me Feels like a prison to my soul I can hear a whippoorwill calling me home Back where I belong Back where I belong

I've been trying to find this song as well... From what I remember, the lyrics go.. Down rush the waters of a mountain spring on to a forest of beautiful green Til it comes to a place in the valley below Where the whippoorwill's calling for me now I know Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, The whippoorwill calls from afar When it's quiet as a church in their morning prayer The whippoorwill calls from afar When I was a child on my daddy's knee He taught me the call of the whippoorwill And now through time it comes back to me, The whippoorwill's calling for me now I know..
