Lyrics

Tennessee has broke me Brought me to my knees The pretty boys in Memphis Have made a fool out of me Times are hard in Nashville The cash I had is gone I left my kind in Caroline This land is not my home I mean to leave and I'll be found like a river run underground I'm Carolina bound I'm Carolina bound I wandered through the mountains Through the bloom and through the smoke I let these folks change me and rearrange me That's what hurts the most The days have turned to weeks The months have turned to years It's long past time I returned to my pines I'll be damned if I'm dying here I mean to leave and I'll be found like a river run underground I'm Carolina bound I'm Carolina bound I long for my mother Brother and sister too To see and smell the ocean Turn my pain into blues I mean to leave and I'll be found like a river run underground I'm Carolina bound I am Carolina bound Carolina bound I'm Carolina bound Carolina bound I am Carolina bound Carolina bound Carolina bound
