Lyrics Carolina Rain - Nashville Cast, Rhiannon Giddens

Carolina Rain

Let’s go down to Walkertown
Where the flatland starts to rise
Cut a stalk of that sweet southern cane
Listen to the whippoorwills
And watch the fireflies
Wash ourselves in Carolina rain
Baby where’d the time go
I feel it flying by
So much work I thought I had to do
But everything I’d ever want
See it in your eyes
The only thing I care about is you
Let’s go down to Walkertown
Where the flatland starts to rise
Cut a stalk of that sweet southern cane
Listen to the whippoorwills
And watch the fireflies
Wash ourselves in Carolina rain
I know that we were younger once
Now we’re growing old
We don’t have to want the things we wanted then
Why chase that dollar
My baby’s got a heart of gold
I know we’ll find ourselves again
They say money isn’t everything
But it’s not a thing at all
Just a way to get what you need to survive
I don’t care about it now, no
Pride no fear, no fall
Just us two in love again at last
Let’s go down to Walkertown
Where the flatland starts to rise
Cut a stalk of that sweet southern cane
Listen to the whippoorwills
And watch the fireflies
Wash ourselves in Carolina rain
Wash ourselves in Carolina rain
