[Chorus 1]
There's a place where the sun doth shine
And the birds keep time with the pines up yonder
That's the home of my Caroline
She's dancing in the sky
[Verse 1]
Oh how sweet when we meet
On the golden streets of the great wide valley
These old chains around my feet
They're pulling me back down
[Chorus 2]
Caroline, oh Caroline
I'll be home Just at any old time
The grave and the garden won't be satisfied
Until your name's next to mine
[Verse 2]
And my bones do break and my hands do shake
When my bones do break and my hands do shake
As I lie in the wake of time's cruel slaughter
But if I die before I wake
I'm gonna see my Caroline
[Chorus 2]
[Chorus 1]
There's a place where the sun doth shine
And the birds keep time with the pines up yonder
That's the home of my Caroline
She's dancing in the sky
[Chorus 2 X2]
