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? Yes, I´m going to Carolina in my mind.

Karen she´s the silver sun, you best walk her way and watch it shine,
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 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´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 moonshine?
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.
And signs that might be omens say I´m going, going, going to Carolina in my mind.

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 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? Yes, 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 moonshine?
Ain´t it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind? Yes, I´m going to Carolina in my mind.
Gotta make it back home again soon, gotta make it back on home again soon,
gotta make it back to Carolina soon, can´t hang around, no babe, gotta make it back home again,
gotta make it back to Carolina soon...
