Lyrics
I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry – Hank Williams 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. 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.
