Lyrics:
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, the pines
The sun don't shine
I'd shiver the whole night through
Thank you
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, the pines
The sun don't shine
I'd shiver the whole night through
Every single thing to come has turned into ashes
'Cause it's all over, it's not meant to be
So I'll say words I don't believe
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
You were bigger than the whole sky
You were more than just a short time
And I've got a lot to pine about
I've got a lot to live without
I'm never gonna meet
What could've been, would've been
What should've been you
(What could've been, would've been)
(What could've been, would've been)
What could've been, would've been
What should've been you
(What could've been, would've been)
What could've been, would've been you
(Could've been, would've been)
(Could've been, would've been)
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
You were bigger than the whole sky
You were more than just a short time
And I've got a lot to pine about
I've got a lot to live without
I'm never gonna meet
What could've been, would've been
What should've been you
There's a cabin in the pines, hidden in the wild wood
Wrapped in honeysuckle vines
Where a mellow moon is always shining
Shining on my cabin in the pines
There's a sweetheart in the pines writing me a letter
I can read between the lines
I can see she longs for my returning
To my little cabin in the pines
Whispering breeze, whisper to my love
Tell her I'll come back some day
Say that I'm blue, broken-hearted too
Sorry that I went away
There's a cabin in the pines meant to be a love nest
Down among the Carolines
Is it any wonder I'm so lonely
Longing for my cabin in the pines?
Little girl, little girl what have I done
To make you treat me so
You have caused me to weep
You have caused me to moan
You have caused me to leave my home
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I shiver when the cold winds blow
My daddy was a railroad man
Drove a mile and a half uptown
His head was found 'neath the driving wheel
His body has never been found
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I shiver when the cold winds blow
The longest train I ever saw
Was down that northern line
The engine passed by at ten o'clock
The cab passed by at nine
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I shiver when the cold winds blow
Little girl, little girl what have I done
To make you treat me so
You have caused me to weep
You have caused me to moan
You have caused me to leave my home
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I shiver when the cold winds blow
The longest train that ever I saw
Went down the Georgia line
The engine passed at six o'clock
And the cab it passed at nine
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows
I asked my captain for the time of day
He (said?)
Well I've heard those city singers singin' 'bout how they can love
Deeper than the oceans, higher than the stars above
Well I come from the country and I know I ain't seen it all
But I heard that ocean's salty and the stars they sometimes fall
And that would not do justice to the way I feel for you
So I had to sing this song about all the things I knew
My love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the rivers
Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill
My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December
And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill
And longer than the song of a whippoorwill
From the back roads to the Broadway shows with a million miles between
There's at least a million love songs that people love to sing
And everyone is different and everyone's the same
And this is just another way of sayin' the same thing
My love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the rivers
Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill
My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December
And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill
And longer than the song of a whippoorwill
My love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the rivers
Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill
My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December
And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill
And longer than the song of a whippoorwill
A whippoorwill
There's a cabin in the pines, hidden in the wild wood
Wrapped in honeysuckle vines
Where a mellow moon is always shining
Shining on my cabin in the pines
There's a sweetheart in the pines writing me a letter
I can read between the lines
I can see she longs for my returning
To my little cabin in the pines.
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And it 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 loose my home
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And it 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 it shiver when the cold wind blows
It's a long steel rail and short cross back
I'm on my way back home
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And it shiver when the cold wind blows
Hoo hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo hoo
Hoo hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo hoo
Hoo hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo hoo
Hoo hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo hoo
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red play and Georgy pines
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you'll ever find
Wood frame house and grandma driveway
Willow trees on our front porch
Just outside the city limits, on the highway thirty four
Yeah I was born on the Dixie Highway, red play and Georgy pines
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you'll ever find (you'll never find it)
And having tobacco rolling on the roadside
Rolled it up and we smoked it down
Don't feel much, but it makes you feel big
When you're ten years old in a tiny town
Yeah I was born on the Dixie Highway, red play and Georgy pines
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you'll ever find
Have a chicken meal right in the backyard
Close line running east to west
Water bane to make a garden, six days and a sun to rest
Yeah I was born (I was born) on the Dixie Highway (Dixie Highway), red play and Georgy pines
I was raised (I was raised) on the Dixie Highway (Dixie Highway), no sweeter place you'll ever find
Summertime, hot and hazy, bare feet and a water hose
Melon and lime on a country table
Lighting the buds when the sun goes down
I was born (yeah, I was born) on the Dixie Highway , red play and Georgy pines
I was raised (yeah, I was raised) on the Dixie Highway (on the Dixie Highway), no sweeter place you'll ever find
And the holy ghost on a Sunday morning,
Gospel songs and a Bible read
Sunday lunch at momma's table, praying for Lord and break the bread
I was born (I was born) on the Dixie Highway, red play and Georgy pines
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you'll ever find
I screamed in porch right at the backdoor,
Washing machine and an old, wood stove
Momma's singing in the kitchen, rolling homemade biscuit dough
I was born (yeah, I was born) on the Dixie Highway (on the Dixie Highway), red play and Georgy pines
I was raised (yeah, I was raised) on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place
When I'm old and Heaven's calling
And they come to care me away
Just lay me down, down in soft land
Here where me and Jordan play
Yeah I was born on the Dixie Highway, red play and Georgy pines
I was raised (yeah, I was raised) on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you'll ever find
No sweeter place you'll ever find
No sweeter place you'll ever find
Oh, this I've go to know
Send a message by the wind
Because I love her so
Whispering pines, whispering pines
Tell me, is it so?
Whispering pines, whispering pines
You're the one who knows
My darling is gone, oh she's gone
And I need your sympathy
Whispering pines, send my baby back to me
Oh, this I've go to know
Send a message by the wind
Because I love her so
Whispering pines, whispering pines
Tell me, is it so?
Whispering pines, whispering pines
You're the one who knows
My darling is gone, oh she's gone
And I need your sympathy
Whispering pines, send my baby back to me
Even be blue
I should have known that you'd leave me alone
And break my heart in two
Although you have left me alone to pine
And all my love was a big fat waste of time
Someday your heart will be broken like mine
So why should I cry over you
I should have known that you'd leave me alone
And break my heart in two
Although you have left me alone to pine
And all my love was a big fat waste of time
Someday your heart will be broken like mine
So why should I cry over you
You broke my heart, you took it apart
So pack up your bags and beat it
Why should I cry over you?
Oh, this I've go to know
Send a message by the wind
Because I love her so
Whispering pines, whispering pines
Tell me, is it so?
Whispering pines, whispering pines
You're the one who knows
My darling is gone, oh she's gone
And I need your sympathy
Whispering pines, send my baby back to me
She holds me when I'm sleepin'
She wakes me with a kiss
She is the only woman
My heart cannot resist
My sweet Augusta darlin'
Comes from those Georgia pines
My sweet Augusta darlin'
The one true love of mine
She whispers that she loves me
She knows I feel the same
I thank the Lord above me
When I hear her call my name
My sweet Augusta darlin'
Comes from those Georgia pines
My sweet Augusta darlin'
The one true love of mine
We'll praise this perfect union
And we'll watch the years go by
And we'll be such sweet companions
Until the end of time
My sweet Augusta darlin'
Comes from those Georgia pines
My sweet Augusta darlin'
The one true love of mine
My sweet Augusta darlin'
The one true love of mine
See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter skol, Aspenglow
As the winter days unfold
Hearts grow warmer with the cold
Peace of mind is all you know
Winter skol, Aspenglow
Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive
Smiling faces all around
Laughter is the only sound
Memories that can't grow old
Of winter skol, Aspenglow
Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive
See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter skol, Aspenglow
Winter skol, Aspenglow
See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter skol, Aspenglow
As the winter days unfold
Hearts grow warmer with the cold
Peace of mind is all you know
Winter skol, Aspenglow
Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive
Smiling faces all around
Laughter is the only sound
Memories that can't grow old
Of winter skol, Aspenglow
Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive
See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter skol, Aspenglow
Winter skol, Aspenglow
(Traditional)
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 leave 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
I asked my captain for the time of day
He said he throwed his watch away
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
And you shiver when the cold wind blows
Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo
I have come curiously close to the end, though
Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole
Defeated, I concede and move closer
I may find comfort here
I may find peace within the emptiness
How pitiful
It's calling me (calling me)
It's calling me (calling me)
It's calling me (calling me)
It's calling me
And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping
The moon tells me a secret, a confidant
As full and bright as I am
This light is not my own and
A million light reflections pass over me
The source is bright and endless
She resuscitates the hopeless
Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting
And as I pull my head out, I am without one doubt
Don't want to be down here soothing my narcissism
I must crucify the ego before it's far too late
I pray the light lifts me out
Before I pine away (pine away)
Before I pine away (pine away)
Before I pine away (pine away)
Before I pine away
So crucify the ego, before it's far too late
And leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable
So let the light touch you
So let the words spill through
And let them pass right through
Bringing out our hope and reason
Before we pine away (pine away)
Before we pine away (pine away)
Before we pine away (pine away)
Before we pine away
Kaw-Liga, you poor old wooden head
Kaw-Liga was a lonely Indian
Never went nowhere
Heart was set on the Chocktaw maid
Wearin' the long, black hair
Kaw-Liga, ooh
Standin' there, don't never show a sign
'Cause his heart was made of knotty pine
And then one day, a wealthy customer
Bought the Indian maid
Took her oh so far away
And ol' Kaw-Liga stayed
Kaw-Liga, ooh
Standin' there, as lonesome as can be
Ah, just wishin' he were still an ol' pine tree
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, you just ain't never had no kissin'
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, hoss, you don't know what you're missin'
Is it any wonder, that your face is red?
When it's twilight on the trail,
And I jog along,
The world is like a dream
And the ripple of the stream is my song
When it's twilight on the trail,
And I rest once more,
My ceiling is the sky
And the grass on which I lie is my floor
Never ever have a nickel in my jeans,
Never ever have a debt to pay,
Still I understand what real contentment means,
Guess I was born that way
When it's twilight on the trail,
And my voice is still,
Please plant this heart of mine
Underneath the lonesome pine on the hill
(Underneath the lonesome pine on the hill)
When it's twilight on the trail
Hello friend, come on in, the gate is open wide.
Bound to be a fightin' free bonanza,
Singing pines of boundary lines for the Ponderosa Ranch.
You caused me to weep, you caused me to mourn
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
Who who hoo hoo hoo, who who hoo hoo hoo
I lean my back against you
Thinking you were an oak
I knew the wind could bent you
But I can't believe you broke
Now the wind could never break
Me only your false love
Honey I've been true I swear by God above
I thought you were a willow but
You never wept for me
You went roaming in the wildwood like
A ship that roams the see
The willow tree is fickle and it
Weeps in the morning dew
My love is a pine tree cause
That's the only tree that's true
If I was mistaken then take my eyes away
You made a bed in the wildwood and
That's where I saw you lay
Honey your eyes deceived you it's
True I touched the ground
But I never slept there I never
Let my long hair down mhm
Love is like a thorn bush touch
It and you will find
You'll prick your fingers and leave
The sweetest flower behind
Love oh love oh what you done to me
You set me a drifting like
A ship upon the sea
Yes a ship there is I see
You and you belong to me
My love is the ocean and
Deeper love cannot be
Yeah well I guess I was mistaken
And woman I want you back
You never have left my heart now
Honey baby that's a fact
Come to me pine tree and we will never part
We'll put our roots down
In each other's heart come to me pine tree
I heard the pitter-patter
Of a slow winter rain
I heard the lonesome whistle
Of a far away train
As I sat in the silence
Broken only by a train
I heard a heartbreak last night
Oh, how you cried when we said goodbye
As we stood at the station in the rain
A whisper was saying from a pine tree close by
When we heard the whistle of your train
I heard the moans of sobbing of the wind in the pine
I felt the cold icy fingers of fear from the spine
For I knew in my heart, you'd never be mine
And I heard a heartbreak last night
For I knew in my heart, you'd never be mine
And I heard a heartbreak last night
