[Chorus 1]
There's a place where the sun doth shine
And the birds keep time with the pines up yonder
That's the home of my Caroline
She's dancing in the sky

[Verse 1]
Oh how sweet when we meet
On the golden streets of the great wide valley
These old chains around my feet
They're pulling me back down

[Chorus 2]
Caroline, oh Caroline
I'll be home just any old time
The grave in the garden won't be satisfied
Till your name's next to mine

[Verse 2]
And my bones do break and my hands do shake
As I lie in the wake of time's cruel slaughter
But if I die before I wake
I'm gonna see my Caroline

[Chorus 2]
Caroline, oh Caroline
I'll be home just any old time
The grave in the garden won't be satisfied
Till your name's next to mine
[Chorus 1]
There's a place where the sun doth shine
And the birds keep time with the pines up yonder
That's the home of my Caroline
She's dancing in the sky

[Chorus 2]
Caroline, oh Caroline
I'll be home just any old time
The grave in the garden won't be satisfied
Till your name's next to mine

Caroline, my Caroline
I'll be home just any old time
The grave in the garden won't be satisfied
Until your name is next to mine
