Ein schönes Liebeslied:
On a mountain in Virginia stands a lonesome pine,
Just below is the cabin home,
Of a little girl of mine.
Her name is June, and very, very soon,
She'll belong to me,
For I know she's waiting there for me
'Neath that lone pine tree.
Refrain:
In the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia,
On the trail of the lonesome pine
In the pale moonshine our hearts entwine,
Where she carved her name and I carved mine;
Oh, June like the mountains I'm blue
Like the pine I am lonesome for you
On the trail of the lonesome pine.
I can hear the tinkling waterfall, far among the hills,
Bluebirds sing each so merily
To his mate in rapture trills;
They seem to say "Your June is lonesome too",
Longing fills her eyes,
She is waiting for you patiently,
Where the pine tree sighs.
Refrain
