In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Maybe just like a friend of mine
It hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Karen she's a silver sun
You best walk her way and watch it shinin'
Watch her watch the mornin' come
A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin'
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind

There ain't no doubt it no ones mind
That loves the finest thing around
Whisper something SOFT and kind
And hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm Dyin'
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Maybe just like a friend of mine
It hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Dark and silent late last night
I think I might have heard the highway calling
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
Signs that might be omens say I going, going
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

With a holy host of others standing 'round me
Still I'm on the dark side of the moon
And it seems like it goes on like this forever
You must forgive me
If I'm up and gone to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Maybe just like a friend of mine
It hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

When this old world starts a getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I'm gonna climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space

On the roof it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below, it don't bother me

No no no

So when I come home feeling tired and beat
I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet for me now
I'get far away from the husteling crowd
And all that rat race noise down in the street

Oh on the roof, that's the only place that I know
Look at the city baby
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Lets go up on my roof

And at night the stars, they put on a show for free
And darlin' you can share it all with me

Hear what I say
Keep on tellin' you that

Right smack dab in the middle of town
I've found a paradise just about trouble proof
And if this old world starts a getting you down
Well there's room enough for two up on my roof

Up on the roof
Up on the roof
Up on the roof, ohh
Everything is alright
Everything is alright
Come on

Put down what your doing tonight
And climb up the stairs and then you'll see me
We got the stars up above us and the city lights below
ohh ohhh ohhh
Up on the roof

When you're down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, oh, nothing is going right,
Just close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And, you know, wherever I am
I'll come running (oh yeah, baby)
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there, (yeah yeah yeah)
You've got a friend

If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together now
And call my name out loud
Soon I'll be knocking upon your door

You just call out my name
And, you know, wherever I am
I'll come running (Oh, yes I will)
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah yes

Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold?
They hurt you and desert you,
Well, they take your soul if you let them,
Oh, but don't you let them

You just call out my name
And, you know, wherever I am
I'll come running
To see you again
(Oh baby don't you know 'bout)
Winter, spring, summer or fall
(Hey Now) All you've got to do is call
I'll be there, yes

You've got a friend
You've got a friend

You can play the game,
and you can act out the part,
though you know it wasn't written for you.

Tell me how can you stand there with your broken heart,
ashamed to playin' a fool?
But one thing can be to another,
it doesn't take any sacrifice.

Oh, Father, and Mother, and
Sister and Brother,
If it feels nice,
don't think twice,

Just
Shower the people you love with love,
Show them the way that you feel,
Things are gonna work out fine,
if you only will,

Do as I say
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way you feel,
Things are gonna be much better,
If you only will,

You can run but you cannot hide,
This is widely known,
Now what do you plan to do
with your foolish pride,
when you're all by yourself alone,

Once you tell somebody the way that you feel,
You can feel it beginning to ease,
I think its true what they say about the squeaky wheel,
always getting the grease,

Better to
Shower the people you love with love,
Yes and show them the way you feel,
I know Things are gonna be just fine,
if you only will, what I like to do to you

Shower the people you love with love,
Show them the way you feel,
Things are gonna be much better, if you only will

(whoa)Shower the people you love with love,
(yeah shower)Show them the way you feel,
Shower the people you love with love,
Show them the way you feel,

Shower the people you love with love,(you'll feel better right away)
Show them the way you feel,(don't take much to do)
Shower the people you love with love,(I say)
Show them the way you feel,(they in every life)
Shower the people you love with love,
Show them the way you feel,
Shower the people you love with love,(make it rain)
Show them the way you feel,
Shower the people you love with love,(make it rain)
Show them the way you feel,(love love love is sunshine)
Shower the people you love with love,
Show them the way you feel,

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne, the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

Won't you look down upon me Jesus
You got to help me make a stand
You just got to see me through another day
My body's achin' and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way

Oh I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

Been walkin' my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows
It'll turn your head around
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line
To talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby, one more time again now
Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things comin' my way this time around now
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you
Fire and rain
Your rating:
Way down here you need a reason to move
Feel a fool running your stateside games
Lose your load, leave your mind behind, Baby James

Oh, Mexico
It sounds so simple I just got to go
The sun's so hot I forgot to go home
Guess I'll have to go now

"Americano" got the sleepy eye
But his body's still shaking like a live wire
Sleepy "Se�orita" with the eyes on fire

Oh, Mexico
It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low
Moon's so bright like to light up the night
Make everything all right

Baby's hungry and the money's all gone
The folks back home don't want to talk on the phone
She gets a long letter, sends back a postcard; times are hard

Oh, down in Mexico
I never really been so I don't really know
Oh, Mexico
I guess I'll have to go

Oh, Mexico
I never really been but I'd sure like to go
Oh, Mexico
I guess I'll have to go now

Talkin' down in Mexico
Your rating:
do me wrong do me right
tell me lies but hold me tight
save your goodbyes for the morning light
but don't let me be lonely tonight

say goodbye and say hello
sure enough good to see you but it's time to go
don't say yes but please don't say no
I don't want to be lonely tonight

go away then damn you go on and do as you please
you ain't gonna see me getting down on my knees
undicided and your heart's been divided
you've been turning my world up side down

so do me wrong do me right right now baby
go on and tell me lies but hold me tight
save your goodbyes for the morning light morning light
but don't let me be lonely tonight
I don't won't to be lonely tonight no, no I don't
want to be lonely tonight

I don't want to be lonely tonight
