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? Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind
Karen she's the silver sun, you best walk her way and watch it shine
Watch her watch the morning come
A silver tear appearing now I'm crying, ain't I? I'm going to Carolina in my mind
There ain't no doubt in no ones mind that loves the finest thing around
Whisper something soft and kind
And hey, babe, the sky's on fire, I'm dying, ain't I? I'm going to Carolina in my mind
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? Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind
Dark and silent late last night, I 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, going, going to Carolina in my mind
With a holy host of others standing round 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 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? Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind
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? Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind
Gotta make it back home again soon, gotta make it back on home again soon
Gotta make it back to Carolina soon, can't hang around, no babe, gotta make it back home again
Gotta make it back to Carolina soon...
