| 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
|
| 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
|
| 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

|
| 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
|
| 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 … |
