CAROLINA IN THE MORNING

Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina
In the morning....
No one could be sweeter than my sweetie when I meet her
In the morning...
Where the morning glories twine around the door
Whispering pretty stories I long to hear once more..
Strolling with my girlie where the dew is pearly early
In the morning...
If I had Aladdin's lamp for only a day
I'd make a wish and here's what I'd say...
Nothing could be finer thana to be in Carolina...
In the morning! 

Where the morning glories twine around the door
Whispering pretty stories I long to hear once more
Strolling with my girlie where the dw is pearly early
in the morning...
Butterflies all flutter up and kiss each buttercup
at dawning
If I had Aladdin's lamp for only a day
I'd make a wish and here's what I'd say
Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina...
Carolina in the morning....!
