[Chorus]
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?
'Cause I'm going to Carolina in my mind

[Verse 1]
Karin, she's the silver sun
You best walk her way and watch her shine
Watch her watch the morning come
A silver tear appearing now
I'm crying, ain't I?
Going to Carolina in my mind

[Verse 2]
There ain't no doubt in no one's mind
That love's the finest thing around
Whisper something soft and kind
And hey, babe, the sky's on fire
I'm dying, ain't I?
Going to Carolina in my mind

[Chorus]
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 mе from behind?
'Cause I'm going to Carolina in my mind
[Verse 3]
Dark and silent latе last night
Think I might have heard the highway calling
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
And signs that might be omens
Say I'm going, I'm going
I'm going to Carolina in my mind

[Bridge]
With a holy host of others standing around 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

[Chorus]
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?
'Cause I'm going to Carolina in my
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?
'Cause I'm going to Carolina in my mind
Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind
