Lyrics

[INTRO]
Yeah, let me take you down the backroads,
Where the sweet tea flows and the stories unfold,
North Carolina pride, let’s roll,
From the mountains to the coast, we welcome you home.

[VERSE 1]
Sunrise on the Blue Ridge, painting the sky,
From Charlotte to Asheville, man, we fly high,
Got the rhythm of the rivers, the heartbeat of the pines,
We’re dancing through life, love, it’s all intertwined.
Barbecue on the grill, feel that southern heat,
Bluegrass on the porch, everybody move your feet,
Banners waving, hear that old school sound,
From the east to the west, you know we’re pound for pound.

[CHORUS]
Let me show you how we do it down South,
It's a North Carolina thang,
Much love to the tar heel state,
Where I was born and raised,
Uptown,
Downtown,
Everywhere,
All around,
Let's come together,
And it turn it out,

[VERSE 2]
Farm fields golden, sunsets on the shore,
From the Outer Banks to the mountain's core,
Got that Carolina spirit, it’s deep in our veins,
Through the storms and the sunshine, we’ll never feel pain.
Basketball courts and the cheers from the stands,
We’re a family together, let’s take a stand,
Culture rich like the soil, we’re standing so tall,
Together we rise, united we ball.

[CHORUS]
Let me show you how we do it down South,
It's a North Carolina thang,
Much love to the tar heel state,
Where I was born and raised,
Uptown,
Downtown,
Everywhere,
All around,
Let's come together,
And it turn it out,

[BRIDGE]
So raise your voice, let it echo through the night,
Together we shine, yeah, we’re burning bright,
From the mountains of Boone to the shores of Wrightsville,
All in this together, let's climb that hill.

[AD LIBS]
9-1-9,
3-3-6,
9-1-O,
7-O-4,
2-5-2,
No reason to cause a war,

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

Across all lines,
And we're sanctified
