I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

Did you hear that

lonesome whippoorwill?

He sounds too blue to fly.

The midnight train is whining low,

I'm so lonesome I could cry.

I've never seen a night so long,

when time goes crawling by.

The moon just went behind a cloud

to hide his face and cry.

Did you ever see a robin weep

when leaves began to die?

That means he's lost the will to live,

I'm so lonesome I could cry.

The silence of a falling star

lights up the purple sky.

And as I wonder where you are

I'm so lonesome I could cry.

I'm so lonesome I could cry.
