In The Pines

In The Pines
 The longest train I ever saw
 Went down that Georgia line
 The engine passed at six o'clock
 And the cab passed by at nine
 In the pines, in the pines
 Where the sun never shines
 And we shiver when the cold wind blows
 I asked my captain for the time of day
 He said he throwed his watch away
 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
 And we shiver when the cold wind blows
 That makes you treat me so
 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
 Died a mile out of town
 His head was found in the driving gear
 But his body was never found
