In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine

Can't you just feel the moonshine

Maybe just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind

Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Well Karen she's a silver sun

You best walk her way and watch it shinin'

Watch her watch the mornin' come

A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin'

Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind

There ain't no doubt it no one s mind

That love's the finest thing around

Whisper something soft and kind

Yes and hey babe the sky's on fire I'm dyin'

Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine sugar

Can't you just feel the moonshine

Maybe just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind

Yes I'm goin' 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

Other signs that might be omens say I'm going going

I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

And it's 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 gone to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' goin' to Carolina

Can't you see the sunshine

Can't you just feel the moonshine

Maybe just like a friend of mine

To hit me from behind

Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Said I'm goin' to Carolina

I better get back on home again real soon

'Cause I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
