Sweethearts Of The Pines Lyrics

(Emmylou Harris/Paul Kennerley)

Well I used to roll and I used to ramble 
Out on the wilder side of town 
Every night I hear the  bright lights calling 
I never thought I could ever settle down. 
Well, I seen a whole lot of pain  and trouble 
In this lonesome life of mine 
But you gave me love and you gave it double 
And I`ll always be your sweetheart of the pines 
I`ll always be your little sweetheart of the pines 
Now you searched the dark side of the  mountain 
Just to find what you thought true love  should be 
But you found a heart that you never knew   ????? 
When you got around to the other side of  me. 
Well, I seen a whole lot of pain  and trouble 
In this lonesome love of mine 
But you gave me love and you gave it double 
And I`ll always be your sweetheart of the pines 
I`ll always be your little sweetheart of the pines. 

Now you make me feel lovesick darlin` 
The way I did back when my heart was young 
But I`m young enough to start all over 
And old enough to show you how it`s done 
Well, I seen a whole lot of pain  and trouble 
In this lonesome life of mine 
But you gave me love and you gave it double 
And I`ll always be your sweetheart of the pines 
I`ll always be your little sweetheart of the pines
