I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
Hank Williams Lyrics

@jhilmer32

America has a rich cultural. The beauty of our country is that we can share it if we all buy in. My father was born in Texas and the Mexican and German influences in the music he grew up in follow me today.

i am 90 yrs. old & i remember when this came out it was 1948 or 49, i cried then & i cry now. please bring back this kind of music.

Hey Big Guy, Would you tell me anything about your country's conflict? I'm 62 year's old and I can't make head's nor tails out of it especially with our country's talking head's bought and paid for by the ones we dare not talk about....

My uncle Willie was KIA in Germany in 1945 shortly before WWII ended, he was 21 year's old....

And over the year's I've read that US General's serving in that war lamented that we/America may have been on the wrong side of that war....

I have concluded that most war's are some rich man's trick as they play both side's and collect the spoils.... Evil, satanic individuals with bloodlines traceable to the "falling ones".... Nephilim I understand....

And just my humble opinion and having little education in regards to history and most other subject matter....

And I apoligise as I know I'm light-years out of context here....

I saw Hank Williams Jr. In concert a couple time's in the eighties, he put on great shows albeit in one show he was quiet "juiced up" as was the rest of us...

Funny I may never forget him telling the audience and I quote he said "folk's you know I spent the first nine month's of my life trying to get out of the womb" and folk's I want you to know that since I was about 15 "I've spent the rest of my life trying to get back in there"....

He lamented all the silly-ass Hank Williams imitators out there his words and said "tonight you'll know the Real Hank Williams Jr. or something close to that....

I think my friend's and I would vote HWJ for president if given the chance, he'd probably take Vlad and some more world leaders fishing out on some big lake and end all the goophy war's via sheer comeraderie, trust and solidarity....

Peace young Brother....❤❤❤

Every Hank song reminds us of Mom but this song is the one that is felt so deep in the heart . Shortly after she passed this song, no kidding came on the radio. My jaw hit the floor... NO WAY I haven't heard it for decades. I havent stopped crying Im both sad and happy because I know Mom requested this song so I would know she's still here.

@billeddy4357

JohnnyRebKy-----The demons that killed Hank Williams were the same problems that gave him such " passion , soul , feeling , sadness , " . Some other country singers such as George Jones and Hank Snow carried a lot of pain as well ,  but were fortunate to be healthier . There were other country singers such as Lefty Frizzle who were self destructive . The bluegrass singers Carter Stanley and Keith Whitley followed a similar path . The white blues singer/ guitar player / harmonica player , Alan " Blind Eye " Wilson of  the blues band , Canned Heat , fit in a similar category .

@JohnnyRebKy

Bill Eddy Hank was going to quit . Like other singers in the future they were worth more money after death than they ever were alive. I’ve never totally bought the explanation of his death and apparently Hank Jr doesn’t either. It was reported he was badly bruised as if he had been beaten. We will never know but I have serious questions about it. If he was going to quit that meant a lot of money lost for many people. Money is a root of all evil...next to Audrey

its conciseness of words filled w/ such density is the sign of a poet. absolutely nothing wasted & allows the listener to feel in blanks. I think frost when I hear this, but i get where you're going w/ van gogh... it is strong, but imo some american artist have reached the same type of heights. several of dylans & cash's best (who both were strongly influenced by hank) reach the same areas. ive often thought hendrix in wind cries mary also gets close to this. van morrison. or the doors, crystal ship..... one thing id assume we'd agree on, i hope more young people dig into hanks stuff. hes a great influence to listen to if one is trying to create quality.

I was born just up the road from where Hank Williams was born in South Alabama. Hank Williams still has a big influence here. Interstate 65 that runs through Butler county was designated as the Hank Williams Lost Highway by the state of Alabama sometime back. I recently met a gentleman and his wife from Great Britain that were passing through here not too long ago heading up to Montgomery to visit Hank Williams grave. He told me that he grew up hearing Hank Williams music and his dad and his Grandfather were huge Hank Williams fans. Strange how a man that died at the age of 29, right at 70 years ago, still has such a huge fan base, with music that people can relate to, that was written mostly by himself. Hank left this world way too early. But, he left a mark that will NEVER be forgotten or go away.

Hello David, I'm getting a bit stronger every day. I still have some that I can't believe he's gone. I'm trying to be positive but it's hard. They're having a celebration for Robert in December at a club that still hosts live bands. They've gotten the most popular radio DJ to host it. There are going to be 4 bands that Robert was in. Each one will be doing the music that they wrote and recorded. They are trying to get as many of the original members as possible to perform. In between each set they'll be showing videos of other projects he was involved in. He was with Mitch Ryder for 19 years while still pursuing his own music. He was considered one of the best lead guitarists to come out of Detroit. As I now have all of the memorabilia and photos, I've been going through 50 years of his life. I get sad but I realize he had an incredible life. More importantly he had fun. I'm glad I got to be with such an amazing man for 27 years. He was not only talented, but gifted. He played with Chuck Berry when he was 17. He went on to tour the world. He loved sharing his music with everyone, he taught guitar for many years. One of his students has gone on to reach the level of stardom that most musicians dream of. I'll be ok, thanks for asking.

@OneOfUsHere

@@marvintownsend9174 Thank You for asking. I'm going through hundreds of photos and memorabilia from a 50 year career. He didn't throw anything away but didn't file everything. I found dozens of videos and recordings. He was a far bigger " star " than I realized. We hooked up in the last half of his life. As I look through the items I realize how humble he was but he knew he was blessed with a gift. When Mitch Ryder would open for a huge band many of the musicians would steal a glance at the opening band. Mitch can still sing his butt off. He always had a talented backing band but Robert stood out. Inevitably he would be approached by the headliner's band and became friends with most. He would jam with many. I could list them but it would take too long. A couple you probably know are SRV, Fleetwood Mac, Steve Earle, Doyle Bramhall, Suzi Quatro, Kid Rock, Don Was, and on and on. I don't know why I'm telling you this. I guess it's because he didn't brag about it. I wish I could talk to him about some of his experiences. As fun as that all sounds it's not what I miss. I miss the man who was my best friend. I had the first birthday without him last month. In 2 days I'm facing the first Thanksgiving alone. I know Christmas will be rough as well. My life goes on for some reason. Maybe it's to share his memories with the people who attend the celebration of his life next month. I have to keep pushing ahead and organize the items I will share with his fans and friends. I just need to stop thinking about things like asking him if we need butter at the market. I'm half now and it's hard.

@dixienourmous10

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome, I could cry
I've never seen a night so long
And time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind the clouds
To hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die?
Like me, he's lost the will to live
I'm so lonesome, I could cry
The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome, I could cry
That's a good one
It's a lonesome song, ain't it?
Ain't that lonesome, woo
Now you can't get any much lonesome right, can you?
Want to whip a will so lonesome it can't fly
He done got lonesome, man

I remember when I was a teenager I thought country music was a goofy twangy joke. I'm turning 60 this year and I've finally realised how powerful Hank's music is - and that's not even in a historical context! There are so many lines that literally give me goose bumps! No deep metaphors, no flowery adjectives just emotional pow pow pow! It's a rare gift to be able to write so simply but so powerfully - sorry Hank, I truly feel remorse for my adolescent disregard!

I dont support that! I believe that f we dont have a critical faculty we dont have a real creative mind and thats when we never progress... but in the end this is my opinion! we will all die not knowing anything! so in the end maybe its better to never seek that truth since we could somehow agree we´ll never find it and we should settle with our fake and ¨moral¨ perceptions we deeply know will never manage to fulfil us completely but aghh (!)

When I was kid, my dad would sing country songs that I had never heard.. He was born in 1915 and past away 2002. If I had a confused look on my face, dad would tell me to start listening... lol

I've never understood why people like to listen to sad songs when they drink, but damned if I ain't drunk & enjoying this song. I love the way his voice matches the guitar. Its beautiful in its simplicity. Just perfect.

Hello Kathy, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??

@JulianA601

As a small child in SC, I remember learning this song and I knew exactly what Hank was singing about. I made me sad for him. I have loved that man ever since.

@palmcoast26

you mean only greedy conservatives can listen to this song, well maybe because Hank Jr came out of the closet and said he was a republicon.

@hidethesaucex3978

We had amazing artists like Hank Williams and Johnny Cash, now we have a bunch of "country" artists singing about the same stuff. Beer, Women, and wild parties. I pray that we will get an artist like the ones of the 1920s-1960s.
