[Verse 1 Johnny Cash] Hear that lonesome whippoorwill He sounds too blue to fly The midnight train is whining low Im so lonesome I could cry [Verse 2 Nick Cave] Ive never seen a night so long When time goes crawling by The moon just went behind a cloud To hide its face and cry [Verse 3 Johnny Cash] Did you ever see a Robin weep When leaves begin to die That means hes lost his will to live Im so lonesome I could cry [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 4 Johnny Cash Nick Cave] The silence of a falling star Lights up a purple sky And as I wonder where you are Im so lonesome I could cry Im so lonesome I could cry
