I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry - Bill Monroe & The Bluegrass Boys

Hear that lonesome whippoor will

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 the clouds

To hide it's face and cry

Did you ever hear a robin weep

When leaves begin 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
