I Remember Carolina

I remember Carolina, I remember taking turns Each tearing up the other with the prettiest of words I remember back in Greenville, I saw a friend at the show I remember Carolina, I remember being home And I remember California, San Francisco Bay All my buddies live in Oakland, you know the arts don't pay I remember up Fickle Hill, my heart felt at ease I remember Humboldt County, does it remember me? And I remember Montana always treating me fine Driving up to Eureka, Polebridge on the 4th of July Went on a bender in Bozeman, sobered up in Hamilton Fell in love with a fisherman, but it was catch and release And I remember Idaho, 24 years old Good family with a bad dog, bit down to my bone Pam Houston on the Selway, Daddy he said no I remember learnin something, I remember Idaho I remember seeing Dylan, he tipped his hat at me I hitched a ride back to Boston with the Twelve Tribes community I remember I was swimming at Singing Beach That's the last Massachusetts ever did for me I remember Carolina, I remember California I remember Montana, and I remember Idaho I remember Massachusetts, I remember being homesick I don't know where my home is, I remember being free How could I forget Texas? Everything says Texas It's all bigger in Texas, where the best in the west is We drink Shiner in Texas, we eat tacos for breakfast The best burger in Texas The best burger in Texas The best burger in Texas The best burger in Texas The best burger in Texas The best burger in Texas The best burger in Texas It's where my ex lives The best burger in Texas I remember the Alamo
