Esmereldy - They Cut Down the Old Pine Tree

Oh, they cut down the old pine tree. And they hauled it away to the mill. Make a cough in a pine for that sweetheart of mine. Oh, they cut down the old pine tree. Pine tree. He's not alone in his grave inside where that my heart will always be. Oh, he took it apart and they cut down my heart. When they cut down the old pine tree, stop a while and listen to my story. I just come down from the hill. I went there to find my childhood, sweetheart. missed the roses and the whip for will. I returned to look for the old pine tree and the old pine tree was no more. Oh, they chop chop chop. One, two, three. And they're trucking on down in the grill. All the jeterbugs scream while they swing in the dream. See them chop chop chop. One, two, three. Oh, you got to be happy if you want to be kept in the groove with a Goodman symphony. And you won't be poor and wish you'd never been born if you chop chop chop chop chop chop chop chop chop down the old pine tree. The old pine tree is gone. The old pine tree is gone. No one around could be found who saw that tree cut down. The old pine tree is gone. The old pine tree is gone. Only God can make a beautiful tree to shelter you and me. For he's not alone in his grave tonight. For he that my heart will always be. For we drifted aart and they cut down my heart when they cut down the old pine tree. [Music]
