In the Pines / Wayfaring Stranger
My love, my love, don't lie to me
Tell me, where did you sleep last night?
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I shivered the whole night through
My husband was a railroad man
He was killed a mile from here
His head was found in a driver's wheel
But his body has never been found
I am a poor, wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world of woe
But there's no sickness, toll, nor danger
In that bright land to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
The longest train I ever saw went down the Georgia line
The engines passed at six o'clock and the cab went by at nine
My love, my love, where will you go?
I'm going where the cold wind blows
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
Tell me, where did you sleep last night?
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I shivered the whole night through
My husband was a railroad man
He was killed a mile from here
His head was found in a driver's wheel
But his body has never been found
I am a poor, wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world of woe
But there's no sickness, toll, nor danger
In that bright land to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
The longest train I ever saw went down the Georgia line
The engines passed at six o'clock and the cab went by at nine
My love, my love, where will you go?
I'm going where the cold wind blows
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
