In the Pines

The longest train I ever saw went down that Georgia line

The engine passed at six o'clock, and the cab passed by at nine

In the pines, in the pines where the sun never shines

And we shiver when the cold wind blows

I asked my captain for the time of day he said he throwed his watch away

A long steel rail and a short cross tie, I'm on my way back home

In the pines, in the pines where the sun never shines

And we shiver when the cold wind blows

Little girl, little girl what have I done that makes you treat me so

You caused me the weep, you caused me to moan

You caused me to leave my home

In the pines, in the pines where the sun never shines

And we shiver when the cold wind blows
