Chorus:

There's a woman goin' crazy on caroline street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on caroline street



She claimed in a loud voice to be a dancer

But i don't think she's cut a rug in years

Listens to the jukebox for her answers

Slowly guzzles twenty-five cent beers



Talks about the men she's known and then some

She's seen them in her dreams and on the street

She slides her dapper legs from beneath the table

As if to reveal some kind of treat



Chorus:

There's a woman goin' crazy on caroline street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on caroline street



Her lover left her stranded in jamaica

Just right now she can't recall his name

Perceiving she's the center of attention

And all the lurking eyes they look the same



Weather's got the shrimpers in a frenzy

They're horny and don't need a good excuse

Someone yells and things just start erupting

And in a flash all hell has broken loose



Chorus:

There's a woman goin' crazy on caroline street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on caroline street



(instrumental)



When i woke up and looked around the barroom

She was gone and i was black and blue

So be careful when you go to swing your partner

Someone just might take a swing at you



Chorus:

There's a woman goin' crazy on caroline street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on caroline street



Ya there's a woman goin' crazy on caroline street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on caroline street



There's a woman goin' crazy on caroline street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet ...
