Little girl, little girl, don't you lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines, where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
Your father was a hard-working man
Killed a mile out from here
His head was found in a driver wheel
But his body was never found
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
Little girl, little girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
It's a lie they said
About a man who is dead
And it chills me to the bone
In the shade of the pines
Where truth turns into lies
The cold wind keeps you warm
Ain't a place on a map
But it's a place you can go
When the sun shines just too much
Little girl, little girl
Where have you gone
Not even your mother knows
But in the depths of the pines
We empty our minds
And the sun it shines no more
You've caused me to weep
And you caused me to mourn
You caused me to lose my home
How do I get
Through to you
When you're so far away
Oh, the shadow of the pines
Looms over us all
But please, please don't go
