INTRO: VERSE: Somewhere in the mountains in northern Alabama The Carolina lady waits for her man from Tennessee Somewhere in a motel out in Oklahoma There's the Alabama dreamer That same man from Tennessee VERSE: Sometime late at night the lonely wakes her gently And knocks at her door but she won't give in But like every other woman She needs to feel wanted She thinks of making love and goes to sleep again CHORUS: Carolina, dreamin'lonely Carolina, can't you see You will always be the lady That I dream of holding tight That I kiss and tell goodnight Carolina, mountain dewe VERSE: Sometime that next day on a Mississippi freeway The Alabama dreamer is homeward bound His conscious is as clear, as those green eyes of Carolina And she's waiting with the baby from the love Of the only man to lay her down CHORUS: Carolina, dreamin'lonely Carolina, can't you see You will always be the lady That I dream of holding tight That I kiss and tell goodnight Carolina, mountain dewe Carolina, I love you
