lyrics
My love, my love, what have I done
To make you beat me so
You've caused me to weep, you've caused me to moan
I bleed with what you’ve sown
I’ve run, I’ve run, I’ve run away
To where I can’t be found:
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
You’ll shiver when the cold wind blows
The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia Line
The engine passed at six o'clock
Caboose went by at nine
I’ve run, I’ve run, I’ve run away
To where I can’t be found:
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
You’ll shiver when the cold wind blows
My love, my love, what have you done
By the train, in the pines far down
Your hair was found in the driver’s wheel
And your body has never been found.
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines
You’ll shiver when the cold wind blows (x4 one loud one soft?)
It’s a long steel rail and a short cross ties,
I’m on my way back home.
