Way down in Georgia way down in Rome
Come around the mornin' I'll be headed home
Goin' to the mountains of the Caroline
I'll get there before the sun falls behind the tallest pine

Pine tree pine tree
Growin' from the soil of Galilee
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 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

Well through the darkest rainfall I have been kept dry
A steady hand has guided me to the other side
When my dyin' day comes bury me beside
The tallest of the pine trees in the hills of Caroline
