  • In the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia
    On the trail of the lonesome Pine
    In the pale moonshine our hearts entwine
    Where you carved your name and I carved mine.

    Oh, you - like the mountains are blue
    Like the pine - I am lonesome for you
    In the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia
    On the trail of the lonesome Pine.

    On a mountain in Virginia stands a lonesome Pine
    Just below is the little 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. Writer/s: BALLARD MAC DONALD, HARRY CARROLL
