Texty: Micky & The Motorcars. Carolina Morning.

Written by Pinto Bennett


Girl when I left you my poor old heart was breaking

Because I know your love for me is right

But the sun will rise on you in Carolina

And it?ll set on me in Tennessee tonight


I?ve had Carolina mornings and California nights

Good times and places in between

I?m bound to be alright

But it feels so good that it?s understood

I?ll show up without a warning

And I?ll love you on a Carolina morning



Tomorrow I?ll leave for California

After that I might go home to Idaho

But the sun will rise on you in Carolina

Yeah and where it sets on me I just don?t know


I?ve had Carolina mornings, California nights

Good times and places in between


I?m bound to be alright

But it feels so good that it?s understood

I?ll show up without a warning

And I?ll love you on a Carolina morning


Yeah, well maybe you can visit me in Nashville

Check out Music Row and Opryland and get to know my friends

But more than likely I?ll just show up without a warning

And I?ll love you on a Carolina morning



I?ve had Carolina mornings, California nights

Good times and places in between

I?m bound to be alright

But it feels so good that it?s understood

I?ll show up without a warning

And I?ll love you on a Carolina morning


Yeah more than likely I?ll just show up without a warning

And I?ll love you on a Carolina morning
