I got an itch I can't scratch
It's driving me crazy
Its driving me mad
This town is like a poison to my soul
I got my bags packed
I got my belly feed
I got a little bit of music and a little bit of bread
I can't wait to finally get on the road.
Tounges are waggin
Gossip and lies
All people do is criticize
This town don't do nothin but make me blue.
I got some show boots
I got a new suit
I got a little bit of lovin and a little bit of loot
Everything else?
Well, it kinda depends on you.
Oh, Carolina
Arkansas, Tennesseee
If I go out there and find ya
Would you spend your money to see me?
I'll play on your porch or in your room
I wasn't born with a silver spoon
Tell me where you want me and thats where I'm gonna go
'Cos I got some wishes, I got some dreams
Yah, I got a whole lot of things
And I got a hankerin to tell ya what I know.
Oh, Carolina
Arkansas, Tennessee
If I go out there and find ya
Would you spend your money to see me? (repeat)
'Cos I got an itch I can't scratch
It's driving me crazy; its driving me mad
Somethin tells me I wasn't born to be here.
I gotta get going, I gotta start trying
I gotta start living before I start dying
I'm gonna catch the next boat outta here.
Oh, Carolina
Arkansas, Tennessee
If I go out there and find ya
Would you spend your money to see me? (Repeat)
