Lyrics for Hickory Wind

In South Carolina There're many tall pines I remember the oak tree That we used to climb But now, when I'm lonesome I always pretend That I'm gettin' the feel Of hickory wind I'd started out younger Had most everything All the riches and pleasures What else can life bring? But it makes me feel better Each time it begin Callin' me home Hickory wind It's a hard way to find out That trouble is real In a faraway city With a faraway feel But it makes me feel better Each time it begin Callin' me home Hickory wind Keeps callin' me home Hickory wind
