Whip Poor Will

[Verse 1]

Got my window open in the southern cross hotel

It's been my longest night, I can tell

By the way I'm not surprised

To see the desert cover over paradise

[Verse 2]

Now count every rhododendron in this cool mountain light

I've made more mistakes than that just tonight

Now all of you folks in heaven not too busy ringing the bell

Some of us down here aren't doing very well

Some of us with our windows open in the southern cross hotel

[Pre-Chorus]

Still waitin'

Still waitin'

Still waitin'

For you to sing that song again

The one you were singin' at the very fall of man

It ain't hallеlujah but it might as well have been

Sing it, brother, onе more time

Sing it, brother, one more time

Sing it, sister, one more time

Sing it, sister, one more time

[Chorus]

Once for everybody who got left behind

Whip-poor-will

Oh, whip-poor-will

Whip-poor-will

Oh, whip-poor-will

Whip-poor-will
