[Verse 1]
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He seems too blue to fly
And the midnight train is whining low
And I'm so lonesome I could cry

[Verse 2]
I've never seen a night so long
A-time just goes crawling by
And the moon just went behind the cloud
To hide its face and cry

[Verse 3]
Did you ever hear a robin weep
When leaves began to fall?
That mean he's lost all the will to live
I'm so lonesome I could cry

[Verse 4]
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

[Outro]
Oh, I'm so lonеsome I could cry
