Every time I think I smell that sweet southern rain

it takes me to a station on the long black train

I wanna hear the wind blow, and feel the earth move below me

despite of all the good times, I gotta rest my soul


So I'm gone, yes I'm gone

gone to Carolina, where I know that I belong


Yes I'm gone, yes I'm gone

gone to Carolina, where I know I have a home


Every time I think I see your face in a crowd

it's like a bell inside of me, and it's ringin' out loud

I've been so high for so long, there's nothing tried nor true

I'm thinking bout coming down, to lay a little on you


And I'm gone, yes I'm gone

gone to Carolina, where I know that I belong


Yes I'm gone, yes I'm gone

gone to Carolina, where I know I have a home


Take me home


[solo]


Yes I'm gone, yes I'm gone

gone to Carolina, where I know that I belong


Yes I'm gone, yes I'm gone

gone to Carolina, where I know I have a home


Yea, come on
