1. 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 it just like a friend of mine It hit me from behind Yes I'm gone to Carolina in my mind Karen she's a silver sun You best walk her way and watch it shinin' Watch her watch the mornin' come A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin' ain't I Gone to Carolina in my mind There ain't no doubt it no ones mind That loves the finest thing around Whisper something soft and kind And hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm dyin' ain't I 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 it just like a friend of mine It hit me from behind Yes I'm goin' 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 Signs that might be omens say I going, going I'm gone to Carolina in my mind 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 In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina Can't you see the sunshine Can't you just feel the moonshine Ain't it just like a friend of mine It hit me from behind Yes I'm gone to Carolina in my mind Gone to Carolina in my mind Then I'm on to Carolina in my mind Gone to Carolina in my mind Gone - I'm gone - I'm gone Say nice things about me 'Cause I'm gone south Carry on without me 'Cause I'm gone

I. Well love is ...etc...
Verse:
The water is wide, I can't cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I.
Well love is gentle, and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it's new
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away, like mornin' dew.
Instrumental
There is a ship, and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not as deep as the love I'm in
I know not how, I sink or swim.
Repeat first verse.
