Adia Victoria - Carolina Bound

Tennessee has broke me
Brought me to my knees
The pretty boys in Memphis
Have made a fool out of me

Times are hard in Nashville
The cash I had is gone
I left my kind in Caroline
This land is not my home

I mean to leave and I've been feeling
Like a river run underground
I'm Carolina bound
I'm Carolina bound

I wandered through the mountains
Through the bloom and through the smoke
I let these folks change me and rearrange me
That's what hurts the most

The days have turned to weeks
The months have turned to years
It's long past time I returned to my pines
I'll be damned if I'm dying here

I mean to leave and I've been feeling
Like a river run underground
I'm Carolina bound
I'm Carolina bound

I long for my mother
For my sister too
To see and smell the ocean
Turn my pain into blues

I mean to leave and I've been feeling
Like a river run underground
I'm Carolina bound
I'm Carolina bound
Carolina bound
I'm Carolina bound
Carolina bound
I'm Carolina bound
Carolina bound
Carolina bound
