There are many tall pines
 I remember the oak tree
 That we used to climb
 But it makes me feel better
 Each time it begins
 Callin' me home
 Hickory Wind

 I started out younger
 At most everything
 All the riches and pleasures
 What else could life bring
 But now when I'm lonesome
 I always pretend
 That I'm gettin' the feel of
 Hickory Wind

 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
 Callin' me home
 Hickory Wind
 Keeps callin' me home
 Hickory Wind
