Pine Tree - Della Mae
Way down in Georgia
Way down in Rome
Come around the mornin'
I'll be headed home
Goin' to the mountains
Of the Carolines
I'll get there before the sun falls
Behind the tallest pine
Pine tree pine tree
Growin' from the soil of Gallilee
Don't be scared now don't be slow
If you don't go the roots won't grow
When I was a child there
Three feet I stood
I looked out on the valley
And dreamed the dreams I could
As the years passed by
My shadow grew so tall
No steps could I take
Afraid that I would fall
Pine tree pine tree
Growin' from the soil of Gallilee
Don't be scared now don't be slow
If you don't go the roots won't grow
Well through the darkest rainfall
I have been kept dry
A steady hand has guided me
To the other side
When my dying day comes
Bury me beside
The tallest of the pine trees
In the hills of Caroline
Pine tree pine tree
Growin' from the soil of Gallilee
Don't be scared now don't be slow
If you don't go the roots won't grow
If you don't go the roots won't grow
Pine tree pine tree
Growin' from the soil of Gallilee
Don't be scared now don't be slow
If you don't go the roots won't grow
