CHORUS Is my home still up there Where the pines touch the sky I hope to go back to those hills before i die Will my old friends be waiting for me buy and buy Is my home still up there Where the pines touch the sky By day i work down in the coal mines Loading the cars when they roll Each night when i sit by my window I dream about the days of old Is my home still up there Where the pines touch the sky I hope to go back to those hills before i die Will my old friends be waiting for me buy and buy Is my home still up there Where the pines touch the sky I sell my gold watch for a ticket Back to the hills of Caroline And find my dear redded sweetheart With lips as sweet as cherry wine Is my home still up there Where the pines touch the sky I hope to go back to those hillls before i die Will my old friends be waiting for me buy and buy Is my home still up there Where the pines touch the sky Is my home still up there Where the pines touch the sky --- .
