Hear the lonesome whippoorwill He sounds too blue to fly The midnight train is winding low I'm so lonesome I could cry I've never seen a night so long Where time goes crawling by The moon just went behind a cloud To hide its face and 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 I'm so lonesome I could cry
