Lyrics for Carolina

Down in Tennessee Sits a girl alone She sings along with her favorite songs on the radio Only friends she sees Are on TV Magazine and movie stars are her only family Yeah they're all she needs Carolina's so Happy on the outside She keeps frowning inside In the Nashville sky Shines a diamond bright Carolina says it's for the boys after midnight She drifts off to sleep And in her dreams She lives in California in a mansion by the sea Yeah that's who she could be Carolina's so Happy on the outside She keeps frowning inside Carolina's so Happy on the outside She keeps frowning inside And then she wakes to find out Her dream is real (It's real) It's real (It's real) It's real (It's real) It's real Carolina's so Happy on the outside And now she's smiling inside Smiling inside (Inside) Smiling inside (Inside) Smiling inside (Inside) Smiling inside
