In The Pines (As sung by Lead Belly)

     F7                      Bb7    Ab

Black girl, black girl, don't lie to me.

       C7                       F7

Tell me where did you sleep last night?

                                      Bb7       Ab

"In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines

       C7                     F7

I would shiver the whole night through."

Black girl, black girl, where will you go? "I'm going where the cold wind blows. In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines I would shiver the whole night through."

Black girl, black girl, 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 would shiver the whole night through."

"My husband was a railroad man, killed a mile and a half from here. His head was found in a driver's wheel and his body hasn't ever been found."

Black girl, black girl, where will you go? "I'm going where the cold wind blows. You caused me to weep, and you caused me to moan. You caused me to leave my home."
