Caroline Lyrics - Tennessee Pusher - Old Crow Medicine Show

They say you were born in St. Claire's hospital 

I say you were born up in the sky 

You come floatin' down over New Orleans 

To the sweet green levee on the river side 

And your voice chirped like old squeaky shoes 

And momma always said we had nothing to lose 

And so we danced on the street corner 

[Chorus:] 

Oh Caroline 

(Round) Caroline 

Heartbroken hard times, they never got us down 

Walkin' the same line through every single southern town 

Hand in hand your arm 'round mine 

Oh Caroline 

Oh Caroline 

(Round) Caroline 

I seen it all change and watch it change some more 

Seen hard times standin' right outside your door 

Tell me gal what's on your mind 

Oh Caroline 

We were the Cardinals' biggest fans 

Turnin' flips like Ozzy Smith all through the night 

'Til we got traded away 

To the Red Clay Southern League up on the Georgia line 

You be the pitcher and the catcher too 

I'm the home run king before his muscles grew 

Gonna knock the cover off this time 

[Chorus:] 

Oh Caroline 

(Round) Caroline 

I seen it all change and watch it change some more 

Seen hard times standin' right outside your door 

Tell me gal what's on your mind 

Oh Caroline 

These are different days 

And the pace of the world has us thinking there's no time 

To turn the other way 

Take my hand and we'll walk on down the line 

Though we may be a thousand miles apart 

A brother and a sister have a single heart 

And the beat don?t stop for nothin' 

[Chorus:] 

Oh Caroline 

(Round) Caroline 

I seen it all change and watch it change some more 

Seen hard times standin' right outside your door 

Tell me gal what's on your mind 

Oh Caroline 

Oh Caroline 

Oh Caroline 

Oh Caroline 

Oh Caroline 

Oh Caroline
