Carolina Rain |
Until her landlord showed up with two hundred dollar bills |
A notice of eviction on the other hand |
Now she don’t live there no more |
And everyone thinks he drowned |
I pulled into Mecklenburg on them trains |
Into a station that got flooded when they opened up the dam |
And broke their connections to the railway lines |
So they could blast into the quarry |
And for every load of granite |
We got a ton of worry |
One night at the diner over eggs |
Over easy she showed me the length of her legs |
But that gold plated cross on her neck, it was real |
And you don’t get that kind of money from pushing meal |
I should’ve told him that you were the one for me |
But I lied, But I lied |
To most any drifter whose looking for work is too weird |
I met your sister and I married her in July |
But if only to be closer to you, Caroline |
Percy and I moved down the street |
Until we lost two pretty girls |
One was seven and one was three |
Alderman and Caroline owned the house right up the hill |
Where we laid those babies down |
So they could still see our house |
Suspicion got the best of old Alderman Haint |
He owned an auto parts store off the interstate |
But the lord took him home in July |
And then Rose spilled the beans on the day that he died |
And we was in trouble |
I should’ve told him that you were the one for me |
But I lied, But I lied |
Tied up to concrete at the bottom of the quarry |
With a tattoo on his heart that spelled out «Caroline» |
He was silent but his rosary well it |
Drifted into the custody |
Of a sheriff that was just deputized |
And I was down at the banquet hall |
When two guys came up, pretty angry and drunk |
And I’m still here at the banquet hall |
At the banquet hall |
Where the gun went off, in the Carolina Rain |
In the Carolina Rain, in the Carolina Rain |
Oh, Caroline |
