Lyrics:

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
That midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome I could cry
Did you ever see a night so long
When time goes crawling by?
The moon just went behind a cloud
To hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weep?
When leaves began to die
It 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
