Chorus
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

Verse 1
Karen, 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 crying, ain't I?
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

Verse 2
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

Chorus
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

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

Bridge
With a holy host of others standing 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

Chorus
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

Outro
Gone to Carolina in my mind
And I'm gone to Carolina in my mind
Gone to Carolina in my mind
Gone, I'm gone
I'm gone
To say nice things about me
As I'm gone, to South Carolina
Got to carry on without me
I'm gone...
