Lonesome Am I

Mississippi John Hurt

Lonesome is (am) I and I wished I could die
nobody cares for me;

Lonesome is (am) I and I wished I could die
nobody cares for me.

Oh darlin', oh dear
why did you leave me so,

give me the one light, moonlit night,
with the moon shinin' bright,
When you and I made love

You in love with my crew, I'll sail to you,
and I'll moan like a turtle dove

Lonesome is I and I wished I could die
nobody cares for me; (2x)

Im a' coming home, no more to roam,
Darling I'm coming home; (2x)

Lonesome is I and I wished I could die
nobody cares for me (2x)
