Down in Tennessee Sits a girl alone She sings along with her favorite songs on the radio
Only friends she sees Are on TV Magazine and movie stars are her only family Yeah they're all she needs
Carolina's so Happy on the outside She keeps frowning inside
In the Nashville sky Shines a diamond bright Carolina says it's for the boys after midnight She drifts off to sleep And in her dreams She lives in California in a mansion by the sea Yeah that's who she could be
Carolina's so Happy on the outside She keeps frowning inside
Carolina's so Happy on the outside She keeps frowning inside
And then she wakes to find out Her dream is real (It's real) It's real (It's real) It's real (It's real) It's real
Carolina's so Happy on the outside And now she's smiling inside
