There is an other version of this song !!!
You wereD born in St. Claire’s hospital
GI say you were born up in the Dsky
You come Dfloatin’ down over New Orleans
To the Gsweet green levee on the riversideD
And your Avoice shined like your Sunday shoes
And Gmomma always said we had nothing to lose
DAnd so we Adanced on the street corGner
Chorus:
Oh DCarolGine (Caroline)
GHeartbroken hard times, they never Dgot us down
GWalkin’ the same line througDh every shadyBm southern town
AHand in hand your arm ‘round mineG(ring), Caroline you do just fineD
We were the DGasshouse gang
GI’ll be Ozzie Smith you be Sarah mDy wife
‘Til we goDt traded away
To the GRed Clay League somewhere along the GeoDrgia line
AYou’d be the pitcher and the catcher too
I’m thGe home run king ‘fore his muscles grew
DGonna knock the Acover off this Gtime
(Chorus)
Well I cDalled you the other day
GIt sounded like you’d been up all night cDrying
I used to woDnder if we
Had really Grun away would they discover where we were hiDding
Oh but there Aain’t no way we could be so free
as we weGre back in D83
So what’s tAhe use of even Gtrying
Chorus/Outro
Oh DCarolGine (Caroline)
I Gseen it all change, watch it Dchange some more
GSeen hard times standin??D? right outside youBmr door
But AI’d say you do just fine, yoG(ring)u do just fine
Oh CarolDine
