HIGH LONESOME

High in a tree on the top of the hill

By the light of the lonesome ol' moon         

I hear the call of a lone whipporwill

Singing his mournful tune

Way off in the night blows the long freight train

With a roar and a ramble of wheels 

My poor heart is breaking with every refrain

‘cause it sounds just like the way I feel

And it's high lonesome

High lonesome heartbroken and blue

High lonesome

Lil' darling I'm lonesome for you

(musique)

Do you ever get weary roamin' around

Do you think of the sweet love we knew

Do you ever get lonesome the way I am now

Lil' darling I'm lonesome for you

And it's high lonesome

High lonesome heartbroken and blue

It's a high lonesome

Lil' darling I'm lonesome for you

It's high lonesome

Lil' darling I'm lonesome for you
