about

We demoed along with Hot Rod Wind, Don't Take Me Down, and a couple of other songs, live to 2 track at Breezeway Studios in Waukesha, Wisconsin, sometime around early 1986.

lyrics

Halfway to Carolina
©2007 Steve Summers

Halfway to Carolina
Carolina USA

Left ma ma ma papa and ma sweet Carolina
Tryin' ta find a scene where the grass is always green
l seen the mountains reachin' up to the sky
Seen the mighty rivers roll to the sea
l searched the world over but all l got was misery

And so l'm
Halfway to Carolina
I can't wait to get back home
Halfway to Carolina
Been gone for far too long
l need some home cookin' good lovin' kick my shoes off do nothin'
Halfway to Carolina
Carolina USA

Been so long in the company of strangers
l can't remember when l felt l truly did belong
l said good-bye to all the things that l loved
Gave anybody near me the shove
Swore l'd never look back but Jack l had to face the fact that l was wrong

And so l'm
Halfway to Carolina
I can't wait to get back home
Halfway to Carolina
Baby please pick up your phone
l'm sorry l really love ya
Ev'ry lonely night l been dreamin' of ya
Halfway to Carolina
Carolina USA

l dream of Carolina
Long to hold her near
And if she will have me
Well l can't wait to wipe away
My baby's welcome back home tears

Whoo!

Aaaaaahm
Halfway to Carolina
I can't wait to get back home
Halfway to Carolina
Baby don't hang up yo phone
Ev'ry night l been dreamin' of ya
Even tho l hurtcha so ya know l really love ya
Halfway to Carolina
Carolina USA
Halfway to Carolina
Carolina USA

about

EIEIO Sierra Madre, California

EIEIO, est. 1983, put out "Land of Opportunity" and "That Love Thang" on Frontier Records in the mid '80's. In 1999 after a ten year break, we decided to play again and released "EIEIO" in 2007. Here you'll get unreleased material, and hopefully new material from Rob Harding, Mike Hoffmann, Mike Gorman, Scott Gorsuch and me, Steve Summers, time and distance permitting. Thanks for checking in. ... more
