Carolina Moon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She was meaner than an acre full of snakes
She was meaner than an acre full of snakes
Put the root down on ya the earth gonna break
Root down on you the eart gonna break
Lightning struck the fire from the tree
It will never burn and the blossom won't be free
Lightning struck the fire from the tree
It will never burn and the blossom won't be free
Freight train was rolling 'neath a Carolina moon
Carolina moon, oh lord I left too soon
Freight train was rolling 'neath a Carolina moon
Carolina moon, oh lord I left too soon
Appalaicha stream feed the Broad river
Feed the Cooper River, rolling down to the sea
Appalaicha stream feed the Broad river
Feed the PD River, rolling down to me
Lightning struck the fire from the tree
It will never burn and the blossom won't be free
Lightning struck the fire from the tree
It will never burn and the blossom won't be free
Freight train was rolling 'neath a Carolina moon
Carolina moon, oh lord I left too soon
Freight train was rolling 'neath a Carolina moon
Carolina moon, oh lord I left too soon
Lord I wish there was a thunderstorm
Thunderstorm, man the day's too warm
God I wish there was a thunderstorm
Thunderstorm, man the day's too warm
Spanish moos and the live oak tree
Buford frog warm by the sea
Spanish moos and the live oak tree
Buford frog warm by the sea
Lightning struck the fire from the tree
It will never burn and the blossom won't be free
Lightning struck the fire from the tree
It will never burn and the blossom won't be free
Freight train was rolling 'neath a Carolina moon
Carolina moon, oh lord I left too soon
Freight train was rolling 'neath a Carolina moon
Carolina moon, oh lord I left too soon
