Somebody told me that I was a fool (I was a fool)
In one hour's date that she broke all the ru-ules
Running around with a new guy each day (new guy each day)
But she's coming home to stay, she's on her way-ay - yeah

Carolina's comin', she wrote me a letter
Askin' did I love her or did I forget her
Nearly broke my heart when I said goodbye and kissed her
Carolina's comin' home, I know that I've missed her

You must have known that feelin' sometimes in your life
You have no chance of winnin' when you find life's just beginnin'

She'll be surprised when she steps off the plane (steps off the plane)
She won't be expectin' to see me agai-ain
She needs to win and I swallow my pride
I'll open my arms and say, come on and stay-ay-ay-ay, yeah

Carolina's comin', she wrote me a letter
Askin' did I love her, or did I forget her
Nearly broke my heart when I said goodbye and kissed her
Carolina's comin' home, I know that I've missed her, yeah

Carolina's comin', she wrote me a letter
Askin' did I love her, or did I forget her
Nearly broke my heart when I said goodbye and kissed her
Carolina's comin' home, I know that I've missed her

Carolina's comin', she wrote me a letter
Askin' did I love her, or did I forget her
Nearly broke my heart when I said goodbye and kissed her
Carolina's comin' home, I know that I've missed her

Carolina's comin', she wrote me a letter
Askin' did I love her, or did I forget her [fade]
