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
Did you ever see a night so long
When time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind the cloud
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 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
Yea, I could cry
I could cry, I could cry
I could cry, Oh, I could cry
I could cry
