B.J. THOMAS- " I'M SO LONESOME I COULD CRY "

THIS WAS THE FIRST ENTRY INTO THE TOP FORTY FOR B.J. THOMAS. THIS SONG WENT TO # 8 IN 1966. 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
