VERSE 1
In th pines, in th pines where th sun never shines
An' you shiver when th cold winds blow
Little girl, little girl what have I done
To make you treat me so

VERSE 2
The only girl I ever did love
Left town on a train last night
Th train did wreck an' broke her neck
O, Lord, what will I do

VERSE 3
In th pines, in th pines, where th sun never shines
An' you shiver when th cold winds blow
Little girl, little girl where'd you stay last night
Not even your Mother knows

I stayed in th pines where th sun never shines
An' I shivered when th cold winds blowed
