Lyrics:
I was born beneath the bluest skies, along the shore of a shining sea,
and if I were to never leave your side, well I'd say that would be fine by me.
Cus I was born in Carolina, where my daughter will be raised,
I'll name her Caroline, and I'll love her all my days,
right here in Carolina, where Mama gave me my name,
and when I die, it's where my body will be laid,
cus I was born in Carolina.
I stand beneath the light of the stars, and I thank them all that my soul is free,
and if we were to never be apart, well I'd say that would be fine by me.
Cus I was born in Carolina, where my daughter will be raised,
I'll name her Caroline, and I'll love her all my days,
right here in Carolina, where Mama gave me my name,
and when I die, it's where my body will be laid,
cus I was born in Carolina.
Take my blues away. Take it all away.
Cus I was born in Carolina, where my daughter will be raised,
I'll name her Caroline, and I'll love her all my days,
right here in Carolina, where Mama gave me my name,
and when I die, it's where my body will be laid,
cus I was born in Carolina.
