B.J. Thomas: "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" Lyrics

Did you hear that lonesome whippoorwill? 

 He sounds too blue to fly 

 The midnight train is whining low 

 And I'm so lonesome I could cry 

  

 Did you ever see a night so long 

 When time goes crawlin' by? 

 The moon just went behind a cloud 

 And I'm so lonesome I could cry 

  

 Did you ever see a robin weep 

 When leaves begin to die? 

 That means he's lost the will to live 

 And I'm so lonesome I could cry 

  

 The silence of a fallin' star 

 Lights up a purple sky 

 And as I wonder where you are 

 I'm so lonesome I could cry 

  

 Yeah I-I could cry-eye-eye 

 I could cry-eye, eye-eye-eye, I-I could cry-eye 

 I could cry-eye, oh-oh-oh-oh 

 I-I could cry, I could cry
