Key:B Chorus:
Verse 1: Baby, what
do you say we just
get lost?
Leave this one horse
town like two rebels
without a cause
I've got people in
Boston, ain't your
daddy still in Des
Moines?
We can pack up
tomorrow, tonight
let's flip a coin
Chorus: Heads
Carolina, tails
California
Somewhere greener,
somewhere warmer
Up in the mountains,
down by the ocean
Where it don't
matter as long as
we're goin'
Somewhere together,
I've got a
quarter
Heads Carolina,
tails California
Verse 2: We can load
what we own in the
back of a U-Haul
van
Couple of modern day
Moses searchin' for
the Promised Land
We can go 400 miles
before we stop for
gas
We could drive for a
day and then we'll
take a look at the
map
Chorus:
Bridge: We're gonna
get out of here
If we gotta ride a
Greyhound bus
Boy, we're bound to
outrun
The bad luck that's
tailin' us
Verse 3: I was out
with the boys,
catchin' up at a
neon light
Didn't know 'til we
walked in, it was
karaoke night
She was in a circle
of girls, chasin' a
shot with a lime
She was laughin',
they were darin' her
to get on the mic
One of 'em walked up
and turned in her
name
Next thing I knew,
man, she was up on
the stage,
singin'
Chorus: 2: "Heads
Carolina, tails
California"
Maybe she'd fall for
a boy from South
Georgia
She's got the bar in
the palm of her
hand
And she's a '90s
country fan like I
am
Hey, I got a Chevy,
she can flip a
quarter
I'd drive her
anywhere from here
to California
When this song is
over, I gotta find
her
Chorus:
Verse 4: Yeah, she
knew every word by
heart, didn't need
no screen, no
I was raisin' my
glass up for her, I
saw her smilin' at
me, yeah
She had me down in
the front by the end
of verse two
Like there wasn't
no-one else in the
room, we were
singin'
Chorus:
Beidge 2: Yeah, I
bought her a round,
and we talked 'til
the lights came
on
I still see that
girl every time I
hear that song
