Well, I'm walkin' in the hills of Carolina  Through the heat as thick as the blood  That moves my bones  And I don't think much about nothing in Carolina  But it sure feels nice   Not walkin' on steel and stone    Chorus:  Far away from everything that keeps me from you,  Acceptance found in walkin' another mile  And the things I left undone  Become the things I'll never do    Cause I'm floatin' on the wind in Carolina  But my feet still slip in the mud   That holds me down  And I can't help takin' my time in Carolina  Cause the highway hummin'   Might keep me from comin' around    CHORUS    Bridge:  Long gone, it's only one more minute of another long day  Hold on, it's time I gave back  Just a little bit of change    Cause I'm walking in the hills of Carolina  Through the heat as thick as the blood  That saved my soul  And there ain't no doubt about nothing in Carolina  Boy, it sure feels nice   Not living on bread alone    CHORUS    So I think I'll stick around a little while in Carolina...
