I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

I hear that lonesome whippoorwill

She sounds too blue to fly

The midnight train is whining low

I'm so lonesome I could cry

Did you ever see a night so long

As time goes crawling by

The moon just went behind the clouds

To hang his head and cry

Did you ever see a robin weep

When leaves begin to die

It's 'cause 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

I'm so lonesome I could cry
