[Verse 1]
There's a cabin in a valley
My grandpa built on your land
Your mountains are a canvas
For the Maker's hand
Tonight I'm fishin' Elk River
If only in my mind
No, I haven't seen her banks
In such a long, long time

[Pre-Chorus]
I carry you in my heart
Your memory comes over me like the dark and

[Chorus]
Like a phone call from my baby
Sayin' honey I miss ya like crazy
Like the sound of a siren song
Oh, Carolina, ya keep callin' me home
Callin' me home

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I grow weary
From goin' all the time
I love to take a minute
Let you ease my mind
I'd love to see my mama
Maybe go for a drive
But I got to play the star in some little town again tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't get me wrong, I love what I do
It's just another song about missin' you

[Chorus]
Like a phone call from my baby
Sayin' honey I miss ya like crazy
Like the sound of a siren song
Oh, Carolina, ya keep callin' me home
Callin' me home
Callin' me home
Callin' me home

[Bridge]
Oh, oh, we're almost home

[Chorus]
Like a phone call from my baby
Sayin' honey I miss ya, I miss ya like crazy
Just like the song of a siren song
Oh Carolina
Carolina
Carolina
Keep callin' me home
Callin' me home
Callin' me home
Callin' me home
Carolina
Carolina
Keep callin' me home
