Lyrics

Darlin’ Caroline

I fell in love with you when I was just 18
Carefree and footloose, a boy from Tennessee
But when I saw Doc play on the Watson stage
I heard you calling, my darlin’ Caroline

From the mountains laced with smoke to the foothills and the valleys
the shores of Ocracoke to the weekend Nascar rallies
from my first sip of shine on a Blue Ridge Parkway ride
you were calling, my darlin’ Caroline

And I know when I go you’ll be waiting for me
All the miles full of smiles from the places that I’ve seen

I’ve seen a Rocky Mountain high and the Lakes in Minnesota
the New York City Skyline and the fields of Oklahoma
no matter where I roam, I find my way back home
to you, my darlin’ caroline

And I know when I go you’ll be waiting for me
All the miles full of smiles from the places that I’ve seen

now I’m old and grey, all I’ve got are memories
I can’t recall my name but I see you in my dreams
And when I’m dead and gone, my love will linger on
For you, my darlin’ my sweet caroline

And I know when I go you’ll be waiting for me
All the miles full of smiles from the places that I’ve seen

I fell in love with you when I was just 18
Carefree and footloose, a boy from Tennessee
But when I saw Doc play on the Watson stage
I heard you calling, my darlin’ Caroline
