Did you ever notice when the sun goes down
Out of nowhere comes a strange and pretty sound
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
If you listen you can hear it in the breeze
Specially when the breeze is drifting through the trees

It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
And the murmuring waters sing the song
The echoing mountains hum alomg
The whispering valleys fill the air
With a whistling tune our hearts can share

It's so wonderful to walk beneath the moon
Listening to old mother nature's favourite tune
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night

Three and half months later, on October 26, at Radio Recorders in Hollywood, Elvis again recorded A Whistling Tune. This time the song was used in Kid Galahad. It is that version that appears on record. Sherman Edwards and Hal David are the composers.
