[Verse 1]
Carolina
Gave me Dinah
I'm the proudest one
Beneath the Dixie sun
News is spreadin'
'Bout our weddin'
I hear church bells ringin'
Here's the song my heart keeps singin':

[Chorus]
Dinah
Is there anyone finer
In the state of Carolina?
If there is and you know her, show her
Dinah
With her Dixie eyes blazin'
How I love to sit and gaze in
To the eyes of Dinah Lee

[Bridge]
Yet, every night
My, how I shake with fright
Because my Dinah might
Change her mind about me
[Verse 2]
But if Dinah
Ever wandered to China
I would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee

[Chorus]
Dinah
Is there anyone finer
In the state of Carolina?
If there is and you know her, show her
Dinah
With her Dixie eyes blazin'
How I love to sit and gaze in
To the eyes of Dinah Lee

[Bridge]
Yet, every night
My, how I shake with fright
Because my Dinah might
Change her mind about me

[Outro]
But if Dinah
Ever wandered to China
I would hop an ocean
Just to be with Dinah Lee
