Unknown - Carolina On My Mind Lyrics

CAROLINA ON MY MIND

In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine, and can't you just feel the moonshine
And ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind
And I'm gone to Carolina in my mind.

Karin she's a silver sun, you'd best walk her away and watch it shine
Watch her watch the morning come.
A silver tear appearing now I'm crying, ain't I?
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind.

Now there ain't no doubt in no one's mind that love's 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 gone to Carolina in my mind.

In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine, and can't you just feel the moonshine
And ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind
And I'm gone to Carolina in my mind.

Dark and silent late last night I think I might have heard the
highway call
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
And sighs that might be omens say I'm goin', goin'
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind.

Now with a holy host of others standing 'round me, no
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 gone to Carolina in my mind.

In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine, and can't you just feel the moonshine
And ain't it just like a friend of mine, to hit me from behind
And I'm gone to Carolina, oh----in my mind.
