Carolina In My Mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
Now, can't you just feel the moonshine?
And ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm gone 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 cryin', ain't I?
I'm gone 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, baby, the sky's on fire, I'm dyin', ain't I?
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
And can't you just feel the moonshine?
And ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

Dark and silent late last night
I think I might have heard the highway call
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
And signs that might be omens say I'm goin', goin'
Gone to Carolina in my mind

Now, with the holy host of others standing 'round me, no, no
Still I'm on the dark side of the moon
And it looks like it goes on like this forever
You must forgive me if it's up and-

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
And can't you just feel the moonshine?
And ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
And can't you just feel the moonshine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

Better make it back home again soon
Gotta get back to Carolina soon
Gotta make it back on home again soon, no, no
Gotta get back to Carolina soon
Carolina, yeah
Gotta get back home soon
I can't travel no more, babe
Gotta get back on home again
I gotta get back to Carolina soon
Better get back on home again soon, no
Gotta get back on home again
