Original lyrics
ENHear the lonesome whiperwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome I could cry
Have you ever seen a night so long?
When time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud
To hide it's tears and cry
Did you ever see 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
