Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real - Carolina

Yes, he's the son of that other Nelson fellow.  Growing up in his father's shadow hasn't seemed to hurt Lucas Nelson, though.  He's become quite a songwriter - writing a bunch of the soundtrack for the remake of A Star Is Born, and he and his band regularly tour backing Neil Young.

This song is just fun.



Carolina
Lord I love you Carolina
I like you beach and your beer
I park my bus up on the levee
Next to a sandy pier
I like your waves and your women
I like to dance all night
If my baby doesn't love me
I'm going to Carolina tonight 
Carolina
Carolina
If my baby doesn't love me
I'm going to Carolina tonight 
I'll give her two more hours
To let her clear her head
I'm gonna roll me up a number
Waiting naked in bed
I'll take my Texas time
Because I'm feeling alright
Well, if my baby doesn't love me
I'm going to Carolina tonight 
Carolina
Carolina
If my baby doesn't love me
I'm going to Carolina tonight 
Carolina
Carolina
Carolina
Carolina
Carolina
Carolina 
Well, if my baby doesn't love me
I'm going to Carolina tonight
