Lyrics

Whippoorwillville Lullaby

Long ago and far from where you live there was a place called Whippoorwillville
And in this tiny town there lived a tiny girl who made her home in Whippoorwillville
She?d skip all day around the square and laugh and sing while peopled stared in Whippoorwillville
And they?d say Petunia Modern why must you make such a fool of you that?s not what we do in Whippoorwillville

And she said, ?I am just a happy girl, white socks and knobby knees
Who likes to sing and sing some more whenever I do please, whenever I do please, oh yeah?

And when I do I go La La La La La La La La La

And the years go by . . .
