Lil Carol Ann loves me
just look our way you’ll see
she holds me tight in the moonlight
and in the morning is the first star I see

I can’t say no when she goes
come here boy let me show you how my love grows

Take me in you arms, love me
take me love me
now

My boss tried to keep me til eight
I told him Carol and I had a date
He said be cool, you could get fired Bob
I guess tomorrow I’ll find a new job

I can’t be late or hesitate
make Carol Ann fret or wait
to take me in her arms and love me

to take me, love me
now

She said where you been, it’s half past seven
you’ve been gone since about a quarter to eleven
The I take her hand and hold her tight
and she says you know boy you better be treatin me right

I told her what happened, how I was now unemployed
she said its alright, don’t worry boy
we’ll get by as sure as the moon rises
just come over here and love me like the skies

I can’t say no when she goes Take me
