David Dondero – 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
