They say you were born in St. Claire's hospital
I say you were born up in the sky
You come floatin? down over New Orleans
To the sweet green levee on the riverside
And your voice chirped like old squeaky shoes
And momma always said we had nothing to lose
And so we danced on the street corner
Oh Caroline (Caroline)
Heartbroken hard times, they never got us down
Walkin? the same line through every single southern town
Hand in hand your arm ?round mine
Oh Caroline
Oh Caroline (Caroline)
I seen it all change, watch it change some more
Seen hard times standin? right outside your door
Tell me girl what?s on your mind
Oh Caroline
We were the Cardinal?s biggest fans
