No, I can't lie them downtown lights
And that skyline caught my eye for a minute
Been working too much, not livin' enough
I guess I just got caught up in it
Yeah, I could really use a slow-down
And a bed back home right now

Well, that sun's probably settin' down up over that ridge
Bet Mama's got something cookin' on the stove
And Dad's out back hookin' up that boat to that hitch
'Cause in the mornin' he's hittin' our honey hole
Wish I was sittin' on that back porch
Rockin' back and forth and talkin' like we always do
Yeah, I'm doin' fine, but tonight I'm kinda Carolina blue

If I left right now, in four or five hours
Well, I'd be turnin' down that gravel drive
Yeah, but I'm sittin' here in Tennessee
sippin' on this whiskеy
Wishin' it was Smokey Mountain shine

Well, that sun's probably sеttin' down up over that ridge
Bet Mama's got somethin' cookin' on the stove
And Dad's out back, hookin' up that boat to that hitch
'Cause in the mornin' he's hitting our honey hole
Wish I was sittin' on that back porch
Rockin' back and forth and talkin' like we always do
Yeah, I'm doin' fine, but tonight I'm kinda Carolina blue
Oh, I'm Carolina blue

I don't make it back as much as I'd like
But it's always on my mind

That sun's probably settin' down up over that ridge
Bet Mama's got something cookin' on the stove
Daddy's hookin' up that boat to that hitch
'Cause in the mornin' he's hittin' our honey hole
Wish I was sittin' on that back porch
Rockin' back and forth and talkin' like we always do
Yeah, I'm doin' fine, but tonight I'm kinda Carolina blue

In my mind, I'm gone to Carolina
MM, Carolina blue
In my mind, I'm gone to Carolina
