Songs with the word Carolina or Caroline in them

Kimbra, "Carolina"

 

Tori Amos' Me and a Gun has a lyric,
"Do you know Carolina...?"

 

For the record, Marmalade covered the James Taylor song on the Reflections of the Marmalade LP.

 

This is one of my favorite windows-down songs of the last several years.

 

Four pages and no mention of.....!?

 

Marshall Tucker Band

"Carolina Sunset"

I love a Carolina sunset
That's one thing a man will never forget
It brings heaven a little bit closer to Earth

----------------------------

Methamphetamine
Son Volt
Lyrics
I took a night shift, another nickel on the dime
Try to play it straight and make it different this time
Still waiting to meet the next ex-wife
It's either watching these gauges for Monsanto
Or a bar-back job for the casino
The Army won't want me after what this body's been through
Would you take me back North Carolina?
Would you take me back Arkansas?
Blissful days still there to remember
Methamphetamine was the final straw

 

My Carolina Sunshine Girl.....Jimmie Rodgers and Merle Haggard

 

Caroline - Steppenwolf

 

People have mentioned "oh my sweet Carolina" and "Carolina Rain" but going back to his Whiskeytown days...

 

David Gray - Caroline
Ryan Adams - Let It Ride ("Tennessee's a brother to my sister Carolina...")

 

My hometown

 

"I eat my breakfast right here in California, get my dinner in Caroline..."

That's a line from one version of Brownie McGhee's "Key To The Highway" (Brownie frequently changed the lyrics and mentioned other cities locations instead of California and Carolina.)

 

My aunt's brother Hank Martin sang this one.

 

"Christmas in Dixie" by Alabama:

From Jackson, Mississippi
To Charlotte, Caroline
And all across the nation
It's a peaceful Christmas time

 

Caroline is spoken of a few times.

 

Funny that one of the examples I thought of is the very last post before mine.

Oh well, there's this one too:
Left my home in Norfolk Virginia
California on my mind
Straddled that Greyhound and rode him into Raleigh
And on across Caroline.

 

James Dean in that Mercury '49
Junior Johnson runnin' through the woods of Caroline
Even Burt Reynolds in that black Trans Am
All gonna meet down at the Cadillac Ranch

Brooooce!!!

 

Blind man wavin' by the side of the road
In a flatbed Ford carryin' a heavy load
Sweet thing sipping on blueberry wine
On a flat black highway down in Caroline
Black bird slipping in a sky of blue....

All I'm thinkin' about is you, baby
All I'm thinkin' about is you

Brooooce!!!

 

Seu Jorge - Carolina

 

Michael Perry - "Calypso Carol (See hIm lying oN A bed of Straw)" or "Calypso Carol (See hIm lying oN a bEd of Straw)"

 

No it's not. Nitpicking, that is.

 

Both in the same song! And it's a good one, "Carolina Caroline" by Jonathan Edwards from his album "Sailboat".
