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
