The lonesome sigh of a train going by
Makes me want to stop and cry
I recall the day it took you away
I'm blue I'm lonesome too

   When I hear that whistle blow
   I want to pack my suitcase and go
   The lonesome sound of a train going by
   Makes me want to stop and cry

In the still of the night in the pale moonlight
The wind, it moans and cry
These lonesome blues I just can't lose
I'm blue I'm lonesome too
