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
(incomprehensible) 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
(incomprehensible)
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
