[Chorus]
In my mind, I’m going to Carolina
Can’t you see the sunshine?
Can’t you just feel the moonshine?
Ain’t it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind?
And I’m going to Carolina in my mind
[Verse 1]
Karen she’s the silver sun
You best walk her way and watch it shine
Watch her once 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 in no one’s mind
That love’s the finest thing around
Whisper something soft and kind
And hey, baby – the sky’s on fire
I’m dying, ain’t I?
I’m going to Carolina in my mind
[Chorus]
In my mind, I’m going to Carolina
Can’t you see the sunshine?
Can’t you just feel the moonshine?
Ain’t it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind?
When I’m gone to Carolina in my mind
[Verse 2]
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 might be omens say I’m going, going
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind
It’s with a holy host of others standing around me
Still I’m on the dark side of the moon
And it looks like it goes on like this forever
You must forgive me
If I’m up and gone to Carolina in my mind
[Chorus]
In my mind, I’m going to Carolina
Can’t you see the sunshine?
Can’t you just feel the moonshine?
Ain’t it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind?
When I’m going to Carolina in my mind
When I’m gone to Carolina in my mind
Well I’m already gone
I’m gone
Say nice things about me
I’m gone, sudden gone
You’ve gotta carry on without me
I’m gone, I’m gone
I’m going to Carolina in my mind
Yeah I’m
Yes I’m going to Carolina in my mind
