Blue Highway - Nothing But A Whippoorwill Lyrics




(Tim Stafford-Steve Gulley/Daniel House Music, BMI-Mountain Heart Music, BMI)

Well I'm running down this road
A hundred miles from home
We quarreled like true lovers often will
And I still recall the shame
Thought I heard her call my name
But it was nothing—nothing but a whippoorwill

Dark clouds, lightning in the air
The rain was softly falling as I brushed away her hair

She said we had to part, even though she held my heart
And to this day, I know she always will
It was such a dreadful sight, but she's peaceful there tonight
Lying in the ground so cold and still

I couldn't let her walk away
From everything she promised on our wedding day

Now I'm running every day, but I'll never get away
From the rhythm of her voice, it haunts me still
As I turned my gun around
Thought I heard that mournful sound
But it was nothing—nothing but a whippoorwill

Dark clouds, lightning in the air
The rain was softly falling as I brushed away her hair
