Lone Pine Hill - Justin Townes Earle[00:00:00]
I swear I see her in my dreams sometimes[00:00:12]
Held up in the middle of the night[00:00:15]
Shakin like a pistol in a young mans hand[00:00:18]
There in the pale moonlight[00:00:21]
Standin up the top of that lonely hill[00:00:24]
Spared by the company mines[00:00:27]
Is my blue eyed baby with her best dress on[00:00:29]
In the shadow of a lonely pine[00:00:33]
I'll be back before the war[00:00:39]
When the company came[00:00:40]
These hills grew wild and free[00:00:42]
Me and baby we'd hide in the hollers low[00:00:44]
Away from the cruel sun's heat[00:00:48]
But then they knocked down the timber[00:00:50]
And burned off the brush[00:00:52]
To get to the riches below[00:00:54]
And when they pulled out[00:00:56]
They left a cold black ground[00:00:58]
And one pine standing lone[00:01:00]
So take me home[00:01:02]
Lone pine hill[00:01:06]
I signed up back in '61[00:01:12]
I'm an army of Virginia man[00:01:14]
I've been from Mannasas to Mackonackey[00:01:17]
All the way to Sailors Creek fighting[00:01:19]
For my home land[00:01:21]
After 4 years gone and all hope lost[00:01:23]
And Richmond under seige[00:01:27]
And we're diggin out Five Forks[00:01:30]
And waitin in the rain[00:01:32]
For Sheridan to bring us to our knees[00:01:33]
So take me home[00:01:35]
Lone pine hill[00:01:39]
There's a strange moon hangin' overhead tonight[00:01:46]
And if the rain keeps comin' then the creek's gonna rise[00:01:53]
With the good lord's grace[00:01:59]
I'll make it outta this place and[00:02:02]
I'll be in your arms come the morning light I swear[00:02:05]
So god grant me speed and grant me forgiveness[00:02:22]
And carry me on through the night[00:02:25]
Take me through your hills and over your rivers[00:02:28]
Away from this awful fight[00:02:31]
'Cause I ain't never known a man that's ever owned another[00:02:34]
Ain't never owned nothin' of my own[00:02:37]
And after 4 long years I just can't tell you[00:02:40]
What the hell I've been fighting for[00:02:43]
So take me home[00:02:46]
Lone pine hill[00:02:49]
