Lyrics

Carolina Summer
Don Mercer

She’s, Sittin’ on the front porch drawin’ pictures
Chewin’ on a pencil when lost in thought
It’s hot outside but it’s a, Carolina Summer

And the, sound of the ocean comin’ to the front porch
And home it seems a thousand miles away
I liked it there but it’s a, Carolina Summer
You’ll never tear this country boy away

I’m not, singin’ no song for my woman
I’m not, singin’ no song for the State
It’s the freedom that I feel
The wounds I’ve come to heal
Since I, moved away

And Miss T says she thinks, I must be hungry
You haven’t had a thing since noon today
Seems I would have had time, but it’s a Carolina Summer
I was writin’ songs and I guess it slipped my mind

Now I’ve, fed myself and the guitars in the corner
And Miss T’s talking she’d like to take a walk
It’s after midnight but it’s a, Carolina Summer
We like to walk the beach and hear the ocean talk
