    Lyrics:
    Hear the lonesome whippoorwill
    His song's too blue to fly
    The midnight train is a-winding low
    I'm so lonesome I could cry
    I've never seen a night so long
    When time keeps crawling by
    The moon is gone behind the clouds
    To hide his face and cry
    Have you ever seen a robin weep
    When leaves have turned to brown?
    Like me he's lost his will to live
    I'm so lonesome I could cry
    The silence of a falling star
    Lights up a purple haze
    And as I wonder where you are
    I'm so lonesome I could cry

    Tickets went on sale for a Cowboy Junkies show at an 8000 seat venue in Portland, ME.. I instantly got two. It sold out in a day. This was 1996…maybe, and summer. Well. 3 weeks before the concert the venue was condemned by the city for structural issues. Instead of canceling, Margot and her brothers changed venues to the biggest church in town…sat 500. They did some kind of lottery, and I was a winner. It was a second date with a wonderful gal I had recently met. We were seated in the balcony directly above the pulpit/stage. It was acoustically perfect. The crowd was mesmerized. Hands down the best show I’ve ever seen. It was spiritual. I might be biased because that beautiful gal is the mother of my 4 children and grandma of 5. We fell in love that night.

      Had a date with a girl to see them in Philadelphia around the same time. After the show we bought the CD and hung out with the band and they autographed the CD - great night.
      We broke up later and she kept the CD...

      Elvis Presleys isn't an original.
      If it weren't for Hank Williams Elvis never would have sung this song.
      Don't get me wrong Elvis is a great entertainer but he's only mimicking the original.

    Listening to this late at night on my discman, summer of 1997, in the hills between Paso Robles and Cambria CA, where I was summer camp counselor at a camp with cots out under the trees and stars. Watching constellations wheel overhead, this sad, gorgeous music in my ears.

      My young man or woman , It shows how mature you are. This song was written by the great Hank Williams, a very long time ago. He died in a car wreak, way before his time. This is supposed to be country, but whatever the category ; it is one of the greatest songs ever written in America. Today it would be called “Americana.” Keep that open mind of yours.

    Strange, blurry sound gives this a dreamlike quality. For me, it lacks the direct, heartbroken emotion that Jerry Lee Lewis gives to it. However, he is in a class of his own for that. Initially I didna like this at all. However, it does have something to it, and it is very different.
    Carlos Gonzalez, I deleted my original criticism but that also deleted your reply and my follow-up comment. You made me listen again, and re-think.
