Bill Callahan - In The Pines lyrics
[Bill Callahan - In The Pines lyrics]
The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia line
The engine went by at six o'clock
And the cab went by at nine
In the pines in the pines
The sun never shines and we shiver
When the north wind blows
Well I asked the captain for the time of day
He said he threw his watch away
A long steel rail and a short cross tie
And I'm on my way back home
In the pines in the pines
The sun never shines and we shiver
When the north wind blows
Little girl little girl
What have I done
That makes you treat me this way
Well you have caused me to weep
You caused me to moan
You caused me to leave my home
In the pines in the pines
The sun never shines and we shiver
When the north wind blows
Went down that Georgia line
The engine went by at six o'clock
And the cab went by at nine
In the pines in the pines
The sun never shines and we shiver
When the north wind blows
Well I asked the captain for the time of day
He said he threw his watch away
A long steel rail and a short cross tie
And I'm on my way back home
In the pines in the pines
The sun never shines and we shiver
When the north wind blows
Little girl little girl
What have I done
That makes you treat me this way
Well you have caused me to weep
You caused me to moan
You caused me to leave my home
In the pines in the pines
The sun never shines and we shiver
When the north wind blows
