In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows
My love, my love, what have I done
To make you treat me so

You've caused me to weep
you've caused me to mourn
You've caused me to lose my home

In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows

The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia Line
The engine passed at six o'clock
The caboose went by at nine

In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows

It's 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 you shiver when the cold wind blows
