I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

(Hank Williams)



Hear that lonesome whippoorwill

He sounds too blue to fly

That midnight train is whining low

I'm so lonesome I could cry.



Did you ever see a night so long

When time goes crawling by

The moon just went behind a cloud

To hide its face and cry.



Did you ever see a robin weep

When leaves began to die

It means he's lost the will to live

I'm so lonesome I could cry.



The silence of a falling star

Lights up a purple sky

And as I wonder where you are

I'm so lonesome I could cry...
