lyrics

True love, true love, don't you lie to me.
Tell me where did you sleep last night?

In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines,
and you shiver when the cold winds blow.

I wish that I'd never been born,
or that I had died young.
I'd never have kissed
your sweet, sweet lips
or heard your rattling tongue.

In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines,
and you shiver when the cold winds blow.

In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines,
that's where my true love goes.

The longest train, in this whole world,
runs round Joe Brown's coal mine.
Yeah, the headlights come
when that sun comes up,
and the caboose when that sun declines.

My husband was a railroad man,
killed a mile and a half from town.
His head was found in an engine wheel,
but his body never was found.

In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines,
and you shiver when the cold winds blow.

In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines,
that's where my true love goes.

True love, true love,
tell me where will you go.
I'm going to go
where the cold winds blow.

I'm going to weep,
going to cry, going to sigh,
I'm going to moan,
I'm going to dance,
in my old time clothes.

True love, true love,
tell me what have I done,
to make you treat me so?

You made me weep,
You made me moan,
then you sent me
out to roam.

In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines,
and you shiver when the cold winds blow.

In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines,
that's where my true love goes.
