Lonesome is I, I wished I could die
It was a bright moon light night, the moon shining bright
Your heart wasn't true, I'll say unto you
Lonesome is I, I wished I could die
I moaned like a turtle dove
You can't hear nothing but what the birds are saying
Darlin', I'm coming home
Nobody cares for me
When you and I made love
I'm coming home, no more to roam
Darlin', I'm coming home
Lonesome is I, I wished I could die
When you and I made love
I moaned like a turtle dove
Lonesome is I, I wished I could die
Nobody cares for me
Down in the pasture where the birds are singing
Nobody cares for me
Down in the pasture where the birds are singing
Your heart wasn't true, I'll say unto you
It was a bright moon light night, the moon shining bright
You can't hear nothing but what the birds are saying
I'm coming home, no more to roam
Nobody cares for me
Lonesome is I, I wished I could die
