Hear that lonesome whippoonwill He sounds too blue to fly The midnight train is whinning 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 his face and cry And 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 And I'm so lonesome i could cry
