Lyrics

Awful pretty songI think one of the prettiest things that I ever had the pleasure of comin’ up withI’m So Lonesome, I Could Cry
Hear that lonesome whippoorwillHe sounds too blue to flyThe midnight train is whining lowI’m so lonesome, I could cry
I’ve never seen a night so longAnd time goes crawling byThe moon just went behind the cloudsTo hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weepWhen leaves begin to die?Like me, he’s lost the will to liveI’m so lonesome, I could cry
The silence of a falling starLights up a purple skyAnd as I wonder where you areI’m so lonesome, I could cry
That’s a good oneIt’s a lonesome song, ain’t it?Ain’t that lonesome, wooNow you can’t get any much lonesome right, can you?Want to whip a will so lonesome it can’t flyHe done got lonesome, manHe needs some company, bad
