Oh Carol - Smokie

1. Strophe

I was out cruising, getting late and I was losing,

when I saw you walking my way.

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want,

so do I and I ain't losing today.

Well your hips were swinging and your jeans were clinging,

you were driving me out of my mind.

On a hot afternoon when there's nothing to do,

you're not the sort of thing a fellow should find

 

2. Strophe

So I pulled on over, tossed your hair off your shoulder,

when you turned and you looked my way.

Ah you would have died or you'd have skinned me alive,

if I'd have said what I wanted to say.

So being polite said what you doing tonight,

said: "Just so happens I'm free".

You got all the right curves and all the right words,

and that's alright by me.

 

1. Refrain

Oh Carol, you got me eating my heart away,

you got me counting my nights and days.

Oh I'm floating on the Milky Way.

Oh Carol, nobody's done it before,

oh baby, you've opened the door,

oh Carol, you can do it some more.

 

3. Strophe

Well if you're ready for this, when we started to kiss,

she said: "Hold on a minute or two".

Well naturally, I knew it couldn't be me,

I said: "Baby what's troubling you".

She said: "I'm not sixteen, if you know what I mean",

so we sat and we talked for a while.

And when we finally kissed, you know she didn't resist,

and I must say she did it in style.

 

2. Refrain

Oh Carol, you got me eating my heart away,

you got me counting my nights and days.

Oh I'm floating on the Milky Way.

Oh Carol, nobody's done it before,

oh baby, you've opened the door,

oh Carol, you can do it some more.

All right!

4. Strophe

Well, I was out cruising, getting late and I was losing,

when I saw you walking my way.

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want,

but so do I and I ain't losing today.

 

3. Refrain

Oh Carol, you got me eating my heart away,

you got me counting my nights and days.

Oh I'm floating on the Milky Way.

Oh Carol, nobody's done it before,

oh baby, you've opened the door,

oh Carol, you can do it some more.

 

4. Refrain

Oh Carol, you got me eating my heart away,

you got me counting my nights and days.

Oh I'm floating on the Milky Way.

Oh Carol, nobody's done it before,

oh baby, you've opened the door,

oh Carol, you can do it some more.

 

Oh Carol, baby, you can do it some more,

oh Carol, baby, you can do it some more.
