Hear that 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 the clouds   To hide it's face and cry      Did you ever see a robin weep?   When leaves begin to die   That means 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
