| In my mind I’m gone 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 gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| Karin, she’s a silver sun
 | 
| You best walk her way and watch it shine
 | 
| And watch her watch the morning come
 | 
| A silver tear appearing now
 | 
| I’m cryin', ain’t I?
 | 
| Gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| There ain’t no doubt in no ones 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?
 | 
| Gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| In my mind I’m gone to Carolina
 | 
| Can’t you see the sunshine?
 | 
| Can’t you just feel the moonshine?
 | 
| And, ain’t it just like a friend of mine
 | 
| To hit me from behind?
 | 
| Yes, I’m gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| Dark and silent, late last night,
 | 
| I think I might have heard the highway call
 | 
| And geese in flight and dogs that bite
 | 
| The signs that might be omens say
 | 
| I’m goin', I’m goin'
 | 
| I’m gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| With a holy host of others standin' around 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 gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| In my mind I’m goin' to Carolina
 | 
| Can’t you see the sunshine?
 | 
| Can’t you just feel the moonshine?
 | 
| Ain’t is just like a friend of mine
 | 
| To hit me from behind
 | 
| Yes, I’m gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| Gone to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| And I’m goin' to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| Goin' to Carolina in my mind
 | 
| Gone, I’m gone, I’m gone
 | 
| Say nice things about me 'cause I’m gone south now
 | 
| Got to carry on without me, I’m gone |
