[Verse 1: John Mayer]
Whip-poor-will singing
Soft summer breeze
Makes me think of my baby
I left down in New Orleans
I left down in New Orleans

[Verse 2: John Mayer]
Magnolia, you sweet thing
You're driving me mad
Gotta get back to you, babe
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had

[Verse 3: John Mayer]
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

[Verse 4: John Mayer]
Magnolia, you sweet thing
You're driving me mad
I've gotta get back to you, babe
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
