In South Carolina there are many tall pines
I remember the oak tree that we used to clim
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
