Dickey Lee - I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry lyrics

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 a cloud to hide its face and cry

[ steel ]

Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves began 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

I'm so lonesome I could cry
