i'm so lonesome i could cry

did you hear that lonesome whippoorwill

he sounds too good to fly

the midnight train whining low

i'm so lonesome i could cry

cry

did you ever seen a night so long

when time goes crawling by

the moon just went behind a cloud

and i'm so lonesome that i feel i could cry

i could cry

did you see

ever see a robin weep

when leaves begin to die?

like me he's lost the will to live

and i'm so lonesome i could cry

i could cry

the silence of a falling star

lights up a purple sky

and as i wonder

wonder where you are

i'm so lonesome i could cry

cry

i could cry

and as i wonder

wonder where you are

i'm so lonesome i could cry

if you let me

oh no

i wonder where you are

i'm so lonesome i could cry

it seems to me

i'm so lonesome i could cry

i could cry

i could cry
