(True love, true love
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you
Sleep last night?)
I slept in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And I shivered with the cold
Deadly cold.
(Tell me where did you
Get those pretty shoes
And the dress you wear
So fine?)
Well, I got me my shoes
From a railroad man
Got my dress from a driver
In the mine.
--- Instrumental ---
I wish that I had
Never been born
Or had died
When I was young.
Then I never would
Have kissed your sweet, sweet lips
Or had your
Ragging tongue.
(True love, true love
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you
Sleep last night?)
I slept in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And I shivered with the cold
Deadly cold...
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you
Sleep last night?)
I slept in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And I shivered with the cold
Deadly cold.

Well, I got me my shoes
From a railroad man
Got my dress from a driver
In the mine.
