There's A Cabin In The Pines

Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby

There's a cabin in the pines, hidden in the wild wood

Wrapped in honeysuckle vines

Where a mellow moon is always shining

Shining on my cabin in the pines



There's a sweetheart in the pines writing me a letter

I can read between the lines

I can see she longs for my returning

To my little cabin in the pines.



Whispering breeze, whisper to my love

Tell her I'll come back some day

Say that I'm blue, broken hearted too

Sorry that I went away



There's a cabin in the pines meant to be a love nest

Down among the Caroline's

Is it any wonder I'm so lonely

Longing for my cabin in the pines.
