In South Carolina there are many  tall pines
                                    
I remember the oak tree that we use to climb
                                       
But it makes me feel better each time  it begins
                     
Calling me home Hickory Winds
                          
I started out younger at most everything
                                               
All the riches and pleasures  what else could life bring
                                   
But now that I'm lonesome I always pretend
                                  
That I'm getting the feel of Hickory Winds
                                        
It's a hard way to find out that trouble is real
                                 
In a far away city with a far away  feel
                                       
But it makes me feel better each time  it begins
                     
Calling me home Hickory Winds
