In my mind I've gone to Carolina Can't you see the sunshine cant you just feel the moon shining? 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 a silver sun, you'd best walk away and watch it shining Watch her watch the morning come A silver tear appearing now I'm crying ain't I? I've gone 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've gone to Carolina in my mind In my mind I've gone to Carolina Can't you see the sunshine cant you just feel the moon shining? 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 The signs that it might be omens say I'm going, going I've gone to Carolina in my mind With a holy host of others standing around me Still I'm on the dark side of the moon And it seems like this goes on like this forever you must forgive me If I'm up and gone to Carolina in my mind In my mind I've gone to Carolina Can't you see the sunshine cant you just feel the moon shining? Ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind Yes I'm going to Carolina in my mind Gone to Carolina in my mind (repeat)
