- Songwriters: Gretchen Peters
High in a tree on the top of the hill
By the light of the lonesome ol' moon
I hear the call of a lone whippoorwill
Singing his mournful tune
Way off in the night blows the long freight train
With a roar and a ramble of wheels
My poor heart is breaking with every refrain
'Cause it sounds just like the way I feel
And its high lonesome
High lonesome heartbroken and blue
High lonesome
Lil' darling, I'm lonesome for you
Do you ever get weary roamin' around?
Do you think of the sweet love we knew?
Do you ever get lonesome the way I am now?
Lil' darling, I'm lonesome for you
And its high lonesome
High lonesome heartbroken and blue
It's a high lonesome
Lil' darling, I'm lonesome for you
Its high lonesome
Lil' darling, I'm lonesome for you
In the Know
