Carolina Blue Sky Blues
In spite of the blues
And my neighbor's short fuse
And the sad ev'ning news,
I know what I'm living for.
I'm here to be me
As best I can be;
The land of the free is
Somewhere just outside my door.
Carolina blue sky blues,
All I want's the chance to choose
What would be my own best choice,
No one here can hear my voice;
Carolina blue day sky,
All I'm tryna say is I
Can't be what you wish I'd be,
I can just be me.
Mom says things aren't what they seem.
I say she lives in a dream.
Things are what they seem to be.
That's the way it seems to me.
It's written that Christ
Most always was nice;
I'll take his advice
And try to live the Golden Rule.
If ever you find
You think you're unkind,
It's all in your mind,
Heaven knows you're kind and cool.
Carolina blue sky blues,
All I want's the chance to choose
What would be my own best choice,
No one here can hear my voice;
Carolina blue day sky,
All I'm tryna say is I
Can't be what you wish I'd be,
I can just be me.
And my neighbor's short fuse
And the sad ev'ning news,
I know what I'm living for.
I'm here to be me
As best I can be;
The land of the free is
Somewhere just outside my door.
Carolina blue sky blues,
All I want's the chance to choose
What would be my own best choice,
No one here can hear my voice;
Carolina blue day sky,
All I'm tryna say is I
Can't be what you wish I'd be,
I can just be me.
Mom says things aren't what they seem.
I say she lives in a dream.
Things are what they seem to be.
That's the way it seems to me.
It's written that Christ
Most always was nice;
I'll take his advice
And try to live the Golden Rule.
If ever you find
You think you're unkind,
It's all in your mind,
Heaven knows you're kind and cool.
Carolina blue sky blues,
All I want's the chance to choose
What would be my own best choice,
No one here can hear my voice;
Carolina blue day sky,
All I'm tryna say is I
Can't be what you wish I'd be,
I can just be me.
