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

And i'm going to carolina in my mind



Karen she's a silver sun

You'd best walk away and watchhine

Watch her watch the morning come

A silver tears appearing now

I'm cryin', ain't i

And i'm going to carolina in my mind



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

And love's the finest thing around

Whisper something soft and kind

Hey babe, the sky's on fire

And dyin', ain't i

And 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

And i'm going to carolina in my mind



Dark and silent, late last night

I think i might have heard the highway call

Eastern flight, dogs that bight

Signs that might be omens

Say i'm goin, i'm goin'

I'm going to carolina in my mind



With a holy host of others standing round me, yeah

Still i'm on the dark side of the moon

And it seems like it goes on like this forever

You must forgive me, if it's of an



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

And 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

And i'm going to carolina in my mind
