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?) throwed his watch away |
|
It's a long steel rail and a short cross tie |
|
I'm on my way back home |
|
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 |
|
That makes you treat me so |
|
You caused me to weep, and caused me to mourn |
|
You caused me to leave my home |
|
In the pines, in the pines |
|
Where the sun never shines |
|
I shiver when the cold winds blow |
