In the Pines

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
Shivered where the cold winds blowed

In the pines, in the pines
In the cold, lonesome pines
Shivered where the cold winds blowed

Little girl, little girl
Where'd you stay last night?
Not even your mother knows

"I stayed in the pines where the sun never shines
Shivered where the cold winds blowed"

The prettiest girl that I ever did see
Lived down in the Georgia pines
And the only girl that I ever did love
I knew she'd never be mine

Little girl, little girl
What have I done?
That makes you treat me so

"You've caused me to weep
And you've caused me to mourn
Like I've never done before"

Little girl, little girl
Don't you lie to me
Tell me, where did you get that dress?

"From the mine in the pines
Where the sun never shines"
Shivered where the cold winds blowed

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
Shivered where the cold winds blowed

In the pines, in the pines
In the cold, lonesome pines
Shivered where the cold winds blowed
