Artist/Band: Emmylou Harris
Lyrics for Song: High Lonesome
Lyrics for Album: Singin' With Emmylou, Vol. 2 [2003]



(Emmylou Harris & Gretchen Peters)

Emmylou Harris & The Woodys



High in a tree on the top of the hill

By the light of the lonesome old moon

I hear the call of a lone whipporwill

Singing his mournful tune.



And it's hi-high lonesome

High lonesome heartbroken and blue

Hi-high lonesome just like I'm lonesome for you.



--- Instrumental ---



Way off in the night blows an old freight train

With a roar and a ramblin fool

My poor heart is breaking with every refrain

Cause it sounds just like the way I feel.



And it's hi-high lonesome

High lonesome heartbroken and blue

Hi-high lonesome just like I'm lonesome for you.



--- Instrumental ---



Do you ever get weary roamin around?

Do you think of the sweet love we knew?

Do you ever get lonesome the way I am now?

Little darling I'm lonesome for you.



And it's -hi heartbroken and blue

High lonesome little darling I'm lonesome for you.



And it's hi-high lonesome

Hi-high lonesome little darling I'm lonesome for you...
