Hear that lonesome winter bird
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low

I'm so lonesome I could 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

I'm so lonesome I could cry
