Lyrics

[INTRO]
Yo, come on down, let the good times roll,
North Carolina pride, feel it in your soul,
From the mountains to the coast, let the story unfold,
Now let’s get it started, let the memories be told.

[VERSE 1]
Sunrise over the Blue Ridge, feel the warm embrace,
With a rocking chair view, time slows its pace,
Sweet tea in my hand, front porch sway,
Friends and family gather, it’s a Carolina day.
BBQ smoke rising, grill’s fired up high,
Cornbread sizzling, as the good vibes fly,
Got the sound of the fiddles, the banjo's sweet strum,
Down in Tar Heel country, everyone’s welcome, come on!

[CHORUS]
Let me show you how we do it down south,
It's a North Carolina thang,
Much love to the tarheel state,
It is where I was born and raised,
Whether you're uptown,
Downtown,
Everywhere,
All around,
Let's come together,
And turn it out.

[VERSE 2]
From Charlotte to Wilmington, we shine like stars,
Basketball legends, and the Friday night cars,
Ridin’ through the pines, feeling that freedom breeze,
Blue skies over campuses, just you and me.
The Outer Banks calling, surf’s up, let’s ride,
Or maybe the Asheville arts, let’s take a little stride,
Jazz under the moonlight, feel that soulful tune,
In this land of legends, we awaken the afternoon.

[CHORUS]
Let me show you how we do it down south,
It's a North Carolina thang,
Much love to the tarheel state,
It is where I was born and raised,
Whether you're uptown,
Downtown,
Everywhere,
All around,
Let's come together,
And turn it out.

[BRIDGE]
From the mountains high to the valleys low,
Each heartbeat echoes with the love we show,
In the heart of the South, we rise and unite,
With our heads held high, we’ll shine so bright.

[CHORUS]
9-1-9,
3-3-6,
9-1-O,
7-O-4,
2-5-2,
There's no reason to cause a war,

We fly high,
Above all tides,
We're so unique,
Across all lines,

Across all lines,
And we're sanctified
