Under city lights You got mesmerized You forgot where you are from And who you are Such a tragedy You were young and free Did you ever think That you'd fall so far Turn it on tonight Carolina Till the morning light Carolina I remember when You were innocent I remember what you were My dirty rose Never happy now You're just selling out Easy street is drenched in tears You know it's never paved in gold Turn it on tonight Carolina Till the morning light Carolina Just leave your dirty little secrets for a while Just leave your dirty little secrets for a while Let me make it alright Turn it on tonight Carolina Till the morning light Carolina Turn it on tonight Carolina Till the morning light Carolina
