—Hank Williams and Bill Monroe
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
Chorus:
When I hear that whistle blow
I want to pack my trunk* 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 winds they moan and sigh
These awful blues I just can't lose
I'm blue I'm lonesome too
*also: suitcase, troubles
