In the Pines

Little girl, little girl, don't lie to me
Tell me, where did you sleep last night?
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
We'll shiver the whole night through

My daddy was a railroad man
Killed a mile and a half from town
His head was found
In the driver's wheel
His body never was found

[instrumental: drums, brass and strings]

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
We'll shiver the whole night through
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
We'll shiver when the cold winds blow

[instrumental: drums, brass and strings]

You've caused me to weep, you've caused me to moan
You've caused me to lose my home
Little girl, little girl
Where'd you sleep last night?
Not even your mother knows
