Hear the 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 its face and cry

Did you ever see a robin weep

When leaves begin to die

That means he's lost his will to live

And i'm so lonesome i could cry

The silence of a falling star

Lights up a purple sky

As i wonder where you could be tonight

I'm so lonesome i could cry

Oh i'm so lonesome i could cry

Oh i'm so lonesome i could cry
