In South Carolina there are 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



But I started out younger at most everything

Without the riches and pleasures what else could life bring

But it makes me feel better each time it begins

Calling me home Hickory wind

[ guitar ]

Well it's a hard place to find out that trouble is real

In a far away city with a far away feel

But I'm feeling better better every time it begins

Calling me home Hickory wind

It keeps calling me home Hickory wind
