Down in Tennessee
Sits a girl alone
She sings along with her favorite songs on the radioOnly friends she sees
Are on TV
Magazine and movie stars are her only family
Yeah they're all she needsCarolina's so
Happy on the outside
She keeps frowning insideIn 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 beCarolina's so
Happy on the outside
She keeps frowning insideCarolina's so
Happy on the outside
She keeps frowning insideAnd 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 realCarolina's so
Happy on the outside
And now she's smiling insideSmiling inside (Inside)
Smiling inside (Inside)
Smiling inside (Inside)
Smiling inside
