There’s a nightingale in an oak tree
And he’s singing for me —
When she comes to see me When she comes around
And that gentle breeze in them summery fields
Plays the sweetest melody —
When she comes to see me When she comes around
With fireflies and cikadas
Ain’t that a scenery —
When she comes to see me When she comes around
Ain’t nothing else makes me feel this way
Nothing else make me feel this way
She’s dressed in satin
She’s draped in lace
She’s singing fortunes from a far-off place —
When she comes to see me When she comes around
There’s a buggy in the driveway
There’s a shiny black mare
There’s a tension that’s electric, filling up the air —
When she comes to see me When she comes around
Ain’t nothing else makes me feel this way
Nothing else makes me feel this way
