In my mind I'm going to carolina   Can't you see the sunshine   Can't you just feel the moon shining   Ain't it just like a friend of mine   It hit me from behind   And I'm going to carolina in my mind      Karen she's a silver sun   You best walk her way and watch it shining   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 it no ones mind   That loves the finest thing around   Whisper something soft and kind   Hey babe the sky's on fire I'm dying well 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 moon shining   Ain't it just like a friend of mine   To hit me from behind   And 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   Signs that might be omens say I going going   I'm going to carolina in my mind   Now 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 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 moon shining   Ain't it just like a friend of mine   To hit me from behind   And I'm going to carolina in my mind   Going to carolina in my mind   Going to carolina in my mind
