The lonesome sound of the train goin' by
Makes me wanna stop and cry
I recall the day it took you away
I'm blue, and I'm lonesome, too

Oh, when I hear that whistle blow
Well, I wanna pack my suitcase and go (ooh)

The lonesome sound of the train goin' by
Makes me wanna stop and cry

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

Well, when I hear that whistle blow
Well, I wanna pack my suitcase and go (ooh)

The lonesome sound of the train goin' by
Makes me wanna stop and cry
These lonesome blues I just can't lose
I'm blue, and I'm lonesome, too

I'm blue, and I'm lonesome, too
