There's a path back in the mountains
To that one room house, where I was born
Even now the memories linger
My mama's smile so soft and warm

Lonesome pine I can hear you calling
Calling me back to my home
Where the fox and hound through the hills are roaming
Lonesome pine calling me home

It's been so long since I left that cabin
In search of wealth fortune and fame
Late at night when I'm alone and lonely
I still hear my daddy call my name

Someday soon I'm gonna travel
Back to the land that I love best
In the stillness of the mountains
I will find sweet peace and rest
