"I'm so lonesome....

04 Jul 2009 212
I could cry .." Hear that lonesome whippoorwill He sounds too blue to fly The midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry I've never seen a night so long When time goes crawling by The moon just went behind a cloud To hide its face and cry Did you ever see a robin weep When leaves began to die? That means he's lost the will to live I'm so lonesome I could cry The silence of a falling star Lights up a purple sky And as I wonder where you are I'm so lonesome I could cry "I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry" Words and music by Hank Williams ... From Rolling Stone: 12-09-2004 Produced by: Fred Rose Released: Nov. '49 on Sterling Charts: Did not chart ' -- a vision of lonesome Americana over a steady beat -- was Williams' favorite out of all the songs he wrote. But he worried that the lyrics about weeping robins and falling stars were too artsy for his rural audience, which might explain why the track was relegated to the B side of "My Bucket's Got a Hole in It." As a result, "Lonesome" never caught much attention, but after Williams' death it came to symbolize his whiskey-soaked life, and artists such as Willie Nelson resurrected it, setting the mood for much of the country music that followed." © All rights reserved
