Dottie West - Carolina Cousins lyrics

When I was just a young girl my mama told me hon

What country's where you've been to what country's where you're from

Now I don't wanna hurt you honey can't you see

No I'm not in the country the country's still in me

I've got Carolina cousins Carolina kin (they're waiting there)

At the gates of almost heaven they'll let me in

My Carolina cousins will smile and say hello so for now I've gotta say goodbye and go

You found the country bluebird with a broken wing and tehn

You took her to the city and made her well again

But a hundred smilin' faces and a hundred voices call

Love you but I'm homesick so I'm leavin' after all

Cause I've got Carolina cousins...

Soon you'll get a letter to say I'll meet the bus

You'll just be there on it we'll make one of us

Someday if God's willin' you're gonna tell our son

What country's where you've been to boy what country's where you're from

And you'll have Carolina cousins...

Cause I've got Carolina cousins...
