Lyrics | I’m Going to Fight my way Right Back to Carolina Verse: I’ve got to leave my Caroline, A little card said it was time, And Mister Local Board said I must drop all things and fall in line. Now I don’t want sympathy, But I want the world to see, They surely called upon the right man, when they called on me. Refrain: I’m goin’ to fight my way right back to Carolina, I’m goin’ to run ev’ry Hun, ev’ry son of a gun, I see, Depend on me, ‘Cause I’m in this thing to win, And I know that it’s no sin, To grab a little German, Any little Herman and carve my name on him. And I am satisfied that Carolina loves me, I left my heart with her in Dixieland, She’ll understand, That I may come back with something missin’ But that won’t keep us from huggin’ and kissin’, When I fight my way right back to my Caroline. Verse: This little trip across the sea, To Picadilly and Paree, Is just the thing that I’ve been longing for. It’s just what suited me, Now the girls of France are fine, ‘Cause they’re smiling |
