Magnolia
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Whippoorwill's singing
Soft summer breeze
Makes me think of my baby
I left down in New Orleans
I left down in New Orleans
Magnolia, you sweet thing
You're driving me mad
Got to get back to you, babe
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
You whisper: Good morning
So gently in my ear
I'm coming home to you, babe
I'll soon be there
I'll soon be there
