I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

Hear the lonesome whippoorwill

He sounds to blue to fly

The midnight train is a-winding low

I'm so lonesome I could cry



I've never seen a night so long

When time keeps crawling by

The moon is gone behind the clouds

To hide his face and cry



Have you ever seen a robin weep

When leaves have turned to brown?

Like me he's lost his will to live

I'm so lonesome I could cry



The silence of a falling star

Lights up a purple haze

And yes I wonder where you are

I'm so lonesome I could cry
