There a little log hut down in old Caroline
All the doors are shut and its covered with vine
That’s where I lived when just a lad
I was happy there with Mother and Dad

Now I'm alone and oh so lonely
I know my heart would be so sad
But if I had my to live over
I'd stay at home with Mother and Dad

I left my home down in old Caroline
I rambled round from time to time
I waited too long to start back home
For the ones I loved had done passed on

Now I've got no parents no place to call home
I'm out in this world and I'm on my own
My heart is broke my heart is sad
For I've got no home no Mother or Dad
