Recorded in 1957 (when Debbie Reynolds was 23 years old) for the film "Tammy and the Bachelor," the song earned her a gold record and was the best-selling single by a female vocalist in 1957.

Tammy (Jay Livingston and Ray Evans)

I hear the cottonwoods whisperin'' above
"Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's in love!"
The ole hootie owl hootie-hoos to the dove,
"Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's in love!"

Does my lover feel
what I feel
When he comes near?
My heart beats so joyfully
You'd think that he could hear!

Wish I knew
if he knew
what I'm dreamin' of!

Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's in love!

Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, you and I know
Tammy, Tammy,
can't let him go!
The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low,
"Tammy, Tammy, you love him so!"

When the night is warm, soft and warm
I long for his charms
I'd sing like a violin
If I were in his arms

Wish I knew
if he knew
what I'm dreamin' of!
Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's in love!
