 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 headin' the field  of hickory wind
 I started  out younger,  had most everything;
 all the riches and pleasures,  what else can life bring?
 But it makes  me feel better,  each time you 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 you begin,
 callin' me home,  hickory wind
 Keeps callin' me home,  hickory wind
