DEAD OPERA STAR
I hope you'll forgive, I leave you tonight
I made my time, I'm saying goodbye
The show must go on, I feel so tired
I know it's a shame, but you will survive

I give my last breath, flee from the light
I must confess I had a good time
I'm hoping my songs will never die
Hoping they stay, a breeze in the night
Oh no,
A dead opera star
Oh no,
A dead opera star

Chorus

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun never shines

And you shiver when the cold winds blow

Verse 1

Little girl, little girl, what have I done

That makes you treat me so?

You caused me to weep, you caused me to mourn

And you caused me to leave my home

Chorus

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun never shines

And you shiver when the cold winds blow

Verse 2

The longest train I ever saw

Came down that Georgia line

The engine passed at six o'clock

And the cab came by at nine

Chorus

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun never shines

And we shiver when the cold winds blow

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun never shines

And you shiver when the cold winds blow
