- Verse:
  
- Day is ending, Birds are
  wending,
  
- Back to the shelter of,
  Each little nest they love.
  
- Night shades falling, Love
  birds calling,
  
- What makes the world go
  'round? Nothing but love!
  
-  
  
- Chorus:
  
- When Whippoorwills call,
  And ev'ning is nigh,
  
- I hurry to my blue heaven.
  
- A turn to the right, A little
  white light,
  
- Will lead you to my blue
  heaven.
  
- You'll see a smiling face,
  a fireplace, a cozy room,
  
- A little nest that's nestled
  where the roses bloom.
  
- Just Mollie and me, And
  Baby makes three.
  
- We're happy in my blue heaven.
