The Whip-Poor-Will's Song
The Whip-Poor-Will sang
The very first day of June
The shrillness and vigor of its cry
Surely caught the ladies eyes
It could not hold out very long
The pace it set was much too strong
It very shortly quieted down
Then there was no other sound
Except the starting NOISES of the day
Oh Whip-Poor-Will please, please stay
