SONG INFORMATION

First recording and first release by Bill Monroe and His Blue Grass Boys (1950)

LYRICS

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

When I hear that whistle blow
I want to pack my suitcase 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 wind, it moans and cry
These lonesome blues I just can’t lose
I’m blue, I’m lonesome too
