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'd shiver the whole night through

My father was a railroad man
Killed a mile and a half from town
His head was found 'neath driver's wheel
His body have never been found

You caused me to weep, you caused me to moan
You caused me to leave my home

Black girl, black girl, where will you go?
I'll gog where the cold wind moan
In the pines, in the pines where the sun never shines
I'd shiver the whole night through

Longest train I ever saw
Was a hundred coaches long
And the only boy I ever loved
Is on that train and gone

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'd shiver the whole night through
