Carolina On My Mind Lyrics

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just
feel the moonshine
Maybe just like a friend of mine
It hit me from
behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Karen she's a silver
sun
You best walk her way and watch it shinin'
Watch her watch the
mornin' come
A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin'
Ain't I goin' to
Carolina in my mind

There ain't no doubt it no ones mind
That loves
the finest thing around
Whisper something SOFT and kind 
And hey babe the
sky's on fire, I'm Dyin'
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind

In my
mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel
the moonshine
Maybe just like a friend of mine
It hit me from
behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Dark and silent last last
night
I think I might have heard the highway calling
Geese in flight and
dogs that bite
Signs that might be omens say I going, going
I'm goin' to
Carolina in my mind

With a holy host of others standing 'round
me
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 I'm up and gone to Carolina in
my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the
sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Maybe just like a friend of
mine
It hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
