The Pines Lyrics by Huckleberry Friend

One Mississippi

2018

[Verse 1]
A young girl walking alone
Looking for a daisy to chain
The sun was dropping out of the sky
Her mother told her, don’t be home late
But she let go of her mother’s words
‘Cause she heard the voice calling her name
And she never came home again
[Verse 2]
The grass wet under her feet
The sun dropped behind the trees
And she walked through the tall black pines
Her chain still sits against the leaves
The voice beckoned her, “Follow me”
So she followed her new-found friend
Never to be seen again
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah I’ve got a thing for you
But don’t come to my neck of the woods
Because people around here ain’t no good
Well I know I’m the one with something to prove
I’ll try to get my words out
But no one ever seems to hear me shout
[Chorus]
I see you as a queen
In her castle in the city
I see you looking down on me
In your white dress looking pretty
You look out to the crowd but don’t notice me
And why would you, I’m not the same as you
[Verse 3]
We’ve had reports of a missing child
She left her home around 3 PM
Said to be just over six years of age
If you see a girl with this description
Blonde hair, red dress, and shoes
Remember you saw her on the news
Just remember that she needs a friend
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah I’ve got a thing for you
But don’t come to my neck of the woods
Because people around here ain’t no good
Well I know I’m the one with something to prove
I’ll try to get my words out
But no one ever seems to hear me shout
[Chorus]
I see you as a queen
In her castle in the city
I see you looking down on me
In your white dress looking pretty
You look out to the crowd but don’t notice me
And why would you, I’m not the same as you
[Verse 4]
Her mother went into the field
As the sun was dropping out of the sky
Looking for her baby girl
Looking for her only child
Why did she have to leave
Oh she was going to find out why
As she ventured beyond the pines
