In the shadow of the pines
Lives a girl, and I know that she's mine
Life's worth living anytime
Down in Caroline
She is waiting there for me
Soon her smile I know I will see
She's all mine where I can be
Down in Caroline
It's no matter where I roam
She'll be waiting there I know
And I'll find that gal of mine
Down in Caroline
Curly hair, and eyes of blue
And a heart of love all for you
And I know her love is true
Down in Caroline
It's no matter where I roam
She'll be waiting there I know
And I'll find that gal of mine
Down in Caroline
Vaulted home, and close in time
And to lips that kiss me good night
And I know her love is right
Down in Caroline
It's no matter where I roam
She'll be waiting there I know
And I'll find that gal of mine
Down in Caroline
It's no matter where I roam
She'll be waiting there I know
And I'll find that gal of mine
Down in Caroline
