ALABAMA - Carolina Mountain Dewe lyrics

rate me

Somewhere in the mountains in Northern Alabama

The Carolina lady waits for her man from Tennessee

Somewhere in a motel out of Oklahoma

There's the Alabama dreamer

That same man from Tennessee

Sometimes 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

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

Sometimes 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

Carolina dreaming lonely

Carolina can't you see

You will always be the lady

That I dream of holding tight

That I kiss and tell goodbye

Carolina mountain dewe

Carolina I love you
