Caroline
Tonight I’ll see Caroline
I’m going out with some friends of mine
She bartends down at the local pub
I’ll buy my friends drinks
Cause I’m in love
Before we met she’d heard my name
She thinks country boys are all the same
Just bad sideburns and long hair
And noisy old cars to drive
From bar to bar
Chorus:
Caroline
Maybe we can take a ride
Caroline
Can I be with you tonight
I work at the textile mill
I take double shifts for the extra bills
But every night at eleven p.m.
I clock out and head that way
To see her again
I’ll sit at the bar and talk
Keeping her company ’till she gets off
I want her to know how I feel
I’m not just in love with her
I’m head over heels
Chorus:
Caroline
Maybe we can take a ride
Caroline
Can I be with you tonight
Bridge:
I don’t mind those double shifts
Cause it won’t always be like this
It’s only a matter of time you see
Till Caroline agrees to marry me
Chorus:
Caroline
Maybe we can take a ride
Caroline
Can I be with you tonight
