Did you hear that lonesome whippoorwill?
His sound's too blue to fly.
The midnight train is whining low
and 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
and I'm so lonesome I could cry.
Did you ever see a night so long
and I'm so lonesome I could cry.
Did you ever see a robin weep
when leaves begin to die?
That means he's lost the will to live
and I'm so lonesome I...
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
The silence of a falling star
lights up a purple sky
and I'm so lonesome I could cry.
I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome
I could cry
Yeah, I could cry
I could cry
I could cry
I could cry
I could cry
I could cry
