I used to think life was just down
Joe got up he pushed Jack to the ground
Then the cliche got to me
Love took hold, now all I see
Is South Carolina, way the rocking chair swings
She dreams of a wraparound porch
And snapping peas all day
I used to laugh at this simple way
Now it's a new world I see
She's five foot five with big, brown eyes
She don't eat meat, but she can eat you alive
I'm a Northern Star smitten by the Southern sky
Kentucky keep your whisky, Georgia keep your peach
My Carolina is sweeter than the sweet
I thought love had giving up on me
Now it's a new world I see
She's five foot five with big, brown eyes
She don't eat meat, but she can eat you alive
I'm a Northern Star smitten by the Southern sky
Kentucky keep your whisky, Georgia keep your peach
My Carolina is sweeter than the sweet
I thought love had giving up on me
Now it's a new world I see
I thought love had giving up on me
Now it's a new world I see
Now it's a new world I see
