Caroline Lyrics by Jay Buchanan

0

I look to the West and I see that old sun going down
I strap on my boots and I go blow the roof off this town
In goes the liquor and out of my mouth comes the flame
The sun comes back up and my first word is always your name

Caroline, my hands make the shape of yours in mine
And they refuse to hold on to something new
Caroline I'm gonna burn up all my time
Until the lord brings me back to you

A man takes your horse you just find him and shoot him down dead
A man takes your money you could give him a heel to the head
But what do you do when the lord comes and takes away your wife
Yes your only revenge is to cursе everyday of your life

Carolinе, my hands make the shape of yours in mine
And they refuse to hold on to something new
Caroline I'm gonna burn up all my time
Until the lord brings me back to you

You knew me before I work so hard to build this bad name
You knew me before I knew whiskey, whippings and women and running in vain
You knew you were on your way out long before I did
You knew it would kill me that's why you kept it hid

Caroline, my hands make the shape of yours in mine
And they refuse to hold on to something new
Caroline I'm gonna burn up all my time
Until the lord brings me back to you

Until the lord brings me back to you
