 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Once in my youth, I stood on this mountain 
And planted some pines in the sand 
Every day I looked their way 
But just couldn't understand 

Why they never grew like I thought they should do 
I just couldn't understand why 
Now I've rambled around this wide world through 
And today I just happened by 

   Tall pines, tall pines 
   Reaching up for the clouds 
   Tall pines, tall pines 
   I bet you wouldn't know me now. 

I'll never forget the morning I left 
The hum of the bees in the hay 
The farther I walk, the harder they talk 
How silent it seems here today 

There's an old rail fence that we built, inch by inch 
Surrounding the old family graves 
And there's one gravestone standing all alone 
There waiting to join me in the shade 

   Tall pines, tall pines 
   Reaching up for the clouds 
   Tall pines, tall pines 
   I've come home to sleep beneath your boughs.
