Carolina In The Morning

"Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina"

Wishing is good time wasted,

Still it's a habit they say,

Wishing for sweet's I've tasted,

That's all I do all day.

Maybe there's nothing in wishing,

But, speaking of wishing I'll say,

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.

When 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.

Butterflies all flutter up

And kiss each little 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

In the morning.

Dreaming was meant for night time

I live in dreams all the day,

I know it's not the right time,

But still I dream away

What could be sweeter than dreaming,

Just dreaming and drift away.

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.

When 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.

Butterflies all flutter up

And kiss each little 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

In the morning.
