I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

(Hank Williams)



Hear that lonesome whippoorwill

He seems too blue to fly

And midnight train is whining low

And I'm so lonesome I could cry.



I've never seen a night so long

The time just goes crawling by

And the moon just went behind a cloud

To hide its face and cry.



Did you ever hear a robin weep

When leaves began to fall

That means he's lost all 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.



Oh, I'm so lonesome I could cry...
