I woke up this mornin', rain was pourin' down,
Woke up this mornin', rain was pourin' down,
My baby left me, ain't no love to be found.
Howl at the moon, cryin' out your name,
Howl at the moon, cryin' out your name,
Since you left me, girl, I ain't been the same.
Got a bottle of whiskey, but it won't ease my mind,
Got a bottle of whiskey, but it won't ease my mind,
Your memory haunts me, leavin' pain behind.
Howl at the moon, cryin' out your name,
Howl at the moon, cryin' out your name,
Since you left me, girl, I ain't been the same.
The train keeps rollin', but I'm stuck in this town,
The train keeps rollin', but I'm stuck in this town,
Every time it whistles, I just feel more low down.
Smoke from my cigarette, curlin' in the air,
Smoke from my cigarette, curlin' in the air,
Can't see through this sorrow, no way out of this despair.
Howl at the moon, cryin' out your name,
Howl at the moon, cryin' out your name,
Since you left me, girl, I ain't been the same.
My heart's on fire, burnin' with the pain,
My heart's on fire, burnin' with the pain,
Howl at the moon, cryin' out your name.
