The Carolina Kind Songtext
von Lauren Lucas

He came walkin′ out of that Texaco,
George Strait blarin' out of his Silverado.
A fish hook on the bill of his baseball cap:
God, it′s good to see a man like that, it takes me back.

'Cause there's just somethin′, you know the type:
A southern boy sweet as a Jasmine on a hot, thick summer night.
Kisses that linger a long, long time:
Long after they′re gone, they stay on my mind.
Someone my Daddy woulda liked:
The Carolina kind.

I've fallen for a city boy or two.
I′ve been held in the arms of an Armani suit,
But I've come to learn that ain′t me.
No, just gimme a long-haired country boy in his ripped up jeans.


'Cause there′s just somethin', you know the type:
A southern boy sweet as a Jasmine on a hot, thick summer night.
Kisses that linger a long, long time:
Long after they're gone, they stay on my mind.
Someone my Daddy woulda liked:
The Carolina kind.

Yeah, I wanna hang out on a tailgate on a Saturday night.
I wanna whsiper that I can′t wait to the man I can′t deny no more.

There's just somethin′, you know the type:
A southern boy sweet as a Jasmine on a hot summer night.
Oh, those kisses that linger a long, long time:
Long after they're gone, they stay on my mind.
Someone my Daddy woulda liked.
Ooh, as gentle as a warm breeze whisperin′ through the pines:
That's the Carolina kind.
The Carolina kind.
