Caroline my baby

Caroline my sweet

If I married Caroline

So happy I would be

I wouldn't need no whiskey

I wouldn't need no wine

Wouldn't need much of anything

If Caroline was mine

Her daddy is a preacher

And may he rot in hell

I'd sell my soul to satan for

A bucket from your well

Cause I know that he don't like me

I know he'll disapprove

But I'm gonna marry Caroline

If it's the last thing that I do

If I was a painter

I'd put you down in paint

Hang you by the mona lisa

And put that girl to shame

Or if I was a sailor baby

I sailed the seven seas

I'd row across the ocean

Just to bring you home with me

Oh Caroline my baby

Oh Caroline my sweet

You make a man go crazy

Why won't you come to me

'Cause I've been feeling lonesome

And feeling kinda blue

I think I'd rather die

Than to be away from you

But she said boy

You know you've caught my eye

And I know you're sweeter than

Apple pie

But I like my man completely wild

So baby keep on trying
