Carolina Moon Lyrics

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 earth 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 god I left too soon

Appalaicha stream feed the Broad river

Feed the Cooper River, rolling down to the sea

Appalaicha stream feed the Cape Fear 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 god 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 moss and the live oak tree

Buford frog warm by the sea

Spanish moss and a 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 god I left too soon
