Carolina on My Mind

In my mind I'm going to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine?

Can't you just feel the moonshine?

Ain't it just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind?

Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind

Karen, she's a silver sun

You best walk her way and watch it shine

Watch her watch the morning come

A silver tear appearing now

I'm crying, ain't I?

Going to Carolina in my mind

There ain't no doubt in no one's mind

That love's the finest thing around

Whisper something soft and kind

And hey, babe, the sky's on fire

I'm dying, ain't I?

Going to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm going to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine?

Can't you just feel the moonshine?

Ain't it just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind?

Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind

Dark and silent late last night

Think I might have heard the highway calling

Geese in flight and dogs that bite

Signs that might be omens

Say I'm going, I'm going

I'm going to Carolina in my mind

With a holy host of others

Standing around me

Still I'm on the dark side of the moon

But it seems like it goes on like this forever

You must forgive me

If I'm, if I'm going to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm going to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine?

Can't you just feel the moonshine?

Ain't it just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind?

Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my...

In my mind I'm going to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine?

Can't you just feel the moonshine?

Ain't it just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind?

Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind

Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind
