I swear I see her in my dreams sometimesHeld up in the middle of the nightShakin like a pistol in a young mans handThere in the pale moonlightStandin up the top of that lonely hillSpared by the company minesIs my blue eyed baby with her best dress onIn the shadow of a lonely pineIt was back before the warWhen the company cameThese hills grew wild and freeMe and baby we'd hide in the hollers lowAway from the cruel sun's heatBut then they knocked down the timberAnd burned off the brushTo get to the riches belowAnd when they pulled outThey left a cold black groundAnd one pine standing loneSo take me home...Lone pine hillI signed up back in '61Letras de cancionesI'm an army of Virginia manI've been from Mannasas to MackonackeyAll the way to Sailors Creek fightingFor my home landAfter 4 years gone and all hope lostAnd Richmond under seigeAnd we're diggin out Five ForksAnd waitin in the rainFor Sheridan to bring us to our kneesSo take me home...Lone pine hillThere's a strange moon hangin' overhead tonightAnd if the rain keeps comin then the creek's gonna riseWith the good lord's graceI'll make it outta this placeI'll be in her arms come the morning light I swear...So god grant me speed and grant me forgivenessAnd carry me on through the nightTake me through the hills and over your riversAway from this awful fightCause I ain't never known a man that's ever owned anotherAin't never owned nothin' of my ownAnd after 4 long years I just can't tell youWhat the hell I've been fighting for...So take me home...Lone pine hillTake me home...Lone pine hill From Letras Mania
