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


Chorus:
   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

Chorus:
   In the pines, in the pines

Little girl, little girl, what have I done
That makes you treat me so
You caused me to weep, you caused me to moan
You caused me to leave my home

Chorus:
   In the pines, in the pines
