Cocaine Carolina - Johnny Cash

Morning found me lyin' on a floor in New Orleans,
Looking like the patches was about to eat my jeans.

Feeling like my belly was a warehouse for the blues
And I sure miss my sweet C_caine Carolina.

Met her on an oceanliner, called her C_caine Carolina
She was quite a lady then and I was twenty two.

God knows how much I adored her I just never could afford her
C_caine Carolina how did I get hooked on you?

So goodbye C_caine Carolina you and I are through
I'm going back to Sandy Scag she knows just what to do.

She don't love me for my money, she just wants my body honey.
C_caine Carolina how did I get hooked on you?

Oh someone said if I was lucky I could go back to Kentucky.
Lexington was famous for its bluegrass and its hills.
Carolina we should get up, don't you know we'll have to split up,
Maybe I should go to California

So goodbye C_caine Carolina you and I are through
I'm going back to Sandy Scag she knows just what to do.

She don't love me for my money, she just wants my body honey.
C_caine Carolina how did I get hooked on you?

Oh goodbye C_caine Carolina...
Oh goodbye C_caine Carolina...
