The Pines

Black Hills Lament

A lamenting Americana folk song by The Pines, mourning the Black Hills.

Black hills lament, shadows long and deep
Sleep

Pines whisper secrets of the old frontier
Near

Chorus

Black hills lament, sing the sorrow's tune
Moon

Strings cry for the lost and the land so wide
Hide

Trails fade in the dust of forgotten time
Crime

In the hills, find the heart's quiet plea
Free

Chorus

Black hills lament, sing the sorrow's tune
Moon

Strings cry for the lost and the land so wide
Hide

Bridge

When the wind carries the ghosts' sad song
Long

Black hills lament, where we all belong
Strong

Outro

Black hills lament, eternal call
All
