Lonesome For You Lyrics

(Written By: L. Cordle - L. Shell)

I can't say a train whistle makes me lonesome
I can't say a whippoorwill makes me blue
It takes more than the sound of a Grayhound leavin' town
To break this poor boys heart in two.

I can't say them old sad songs on the jukebox
Are causin' me to cry these bitter tears
The only time they do is when I get the blues
Or when I'm feelin' lonesome for you.

Chorus:
And I'm lonesome for you little darling
More lonesome than the high winds in the pines
I don't want somebody else taking care of
What used to be mine.

There's an old houndog on the hill behind the houseRicky Skaggs - Lonesome For You - http://motolyrics.com/ricky-skaggs/lonesome-for-you-lyrics.html
He sit up sharp and howlin' at the moon
I can tell by his whinin' that his heart been broken too
He's lonesome like I'm lonesome for you.

Chorus:
And I'm lonesome for you little darling
More lonesome than the high winds in the pines
I don't want somebody else taking care of
What used to be mine.

I can't say train the wistle makes me lonesome
I can't say whippoorwill makes me blue
The only time they do is when I get the blues
Or when I'm feelin' lonesome for you.

Yeah, the only time they do is when I get the blues
Or when I'm feelin' lonesome for you...
