Verse 1

G                                 C                 G
The longest train I ever saw Went down that Georgia line
C                    G
The engine passed at six o'clock
D                        G
And the cab passed by at nine

Chorus

G                                    C         G
In the pines, in the pines Where the sun never shines
G                      D         G
And we shiver when the cold wind blows
G                    C               G
Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo, hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo

Verse 2

G
I asked my captain for the time of day
C                      G
He said he throwed his watch away
C                       G
A long steel rail and a short cross tie
D                  G
I'm on my way back home

(Chorus)

Verse 3

G
Little girl, little girl, what have I done
C              G
That makes you treat me so?
G                          C            G
You caused me to weep, you caused me to moan
D                         G
You caused me to leave my home
