Scripto Transcription A written representation of a document. Collected by John Bennett: 37 Legare St., Charleston, So.Ca. 1893-1922: In The Pines In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shines, I shiver when the cold wind blows. I am going away for a year and a day On the longerest road that I knows. Oh, don’t you see yon lonesome dove Flying from pine to pine? If a dove can mourn for her true love Why can’t I mourn for mine? Refrain: In the pines, etc. Oh, don’t you see yonder crow flying high, With quills as black as night? I will never be false to you Until that crow turns white. He taken the Bible into his hands And swore by black and white If ever I prove false to you Bright day shall turn to night, Oh, my lover, tell me true, Where did you stay last night? The wind blew cold on old Bald Mountain, And the stars were a-shining bright. I would that your dear breast were made out of glass That I might read you through. Then I moughten’t fear a lying tongue But know that your heart were true. Come in, come in, my old true love, Come set you down by me. It has been more than a year and a day Since I spoken a word with thee. I can’t come in, and I can’t sit down, For I hain’t got a moment of time. Since you are engaged with another true love Your heart no longer is mine. You know what you told me, love, And you know what you said. You know what you promised me, And you know what you did. I’ll never believe what another man says Let his eyes be blue or brown, Unless he be up on the gallows-tree Saying ‘Love, I’d much rather come down!’ Oh, when your heart were mine, true love, And my head lay on your breast, You could make me believe by the falling of your arm That the sun rose up in the west. There’s many a bright star shall jingle in the west, And many a leaf shall fall below, And there’s many a damn shall fall upon a man For serving a poor girl so! There’s many a girl goes gay about To hear the small birds sing, Who, before she’s done shall set alone And cry for a wedding-ring . I cried, last night, when I comed home, I cried the night before. I’ll cry, to-night, till my eyes pump sand, And then I’ll cry no more! Close with the refrain.
