Lonesome Pine Special

 

I was walking out this morning with rambling on my mind

I am going to catch the Special that train called Lonesome Pine

You can hear the whistle blowing as she's coming down the line

That's the train I catch this morning to ease my troubling mind

 

Yodel...

Take me back to Texas back to my old home

 

Oh I'm weeping like a willow and I'm mourning like a dove

There's a girl out in Texas that I know I really love

Oh I'm going back to Texas where the lonesome coyotes whine

Where the longhorn cattle are roaming round that cabin home of mine

 

Oh give me back my rifle oh give me back my gun

Give me back my home in Texas and my rambling days are done
