Carol
Berry (Chuck) Lyrics

Oh Carol, don't let him steal your heart away
The singer urges Carol not to let someone take her heart away.

I'm gonna learn to dance if it takes me all night and day
The singer is willing to do anything to impress Carol, even if it means learning to dance all night and day.

Climb into my machine so we can cruise on out
The singer invites Carol to join him in his car to go to a cool party spot.

I know a swingin' little joint where we can jump and shout
The singer knows of a fun and lively place where they can dance and have a good time.

It's not too far back off the highway, not so long a ride
The party spot is conveniently located, not too far from the highway.

You park your car out in the open, you can walk inside
There's a parking space near the party venue, and they'll have to walk the rest of the way to get inside.

A little cutie takes your hat and you can thank her, ma'am
At the party venue, there's a girl who takes your hat, and you can politely thank her.

Every time you make the scene you find the joint is jammed
The party spot always has a lot of people, making it a popular place to be.

And if you want to hear some music like the boys are playin'
If Carol wants to hear some good music, there is a band playing at the party venue.

Hold tight, pat your foot, don't let 'em carry it away
The singer encourages Carol to keep the rhythm and enjoy the music without getting carried away.

Don't let the heat overcome you when they play so loud
The singer warns Carol not to get too caught up in the excitement of the music when it gets loud and intense.

Oh, don't the music intrigue you when they get a crowd
The singer points out that the music can be alluring and captivating when they play to a big crowd.

You can't dance, I know you wish you could
The singer acknowledges that Carol may not be a great dancer but senses that she wants to be.

I got my eyes on you baby, 'cause you dance so good
The singer is attracted to Carol and thinks she dances well, even if she may not see it herself.

Oh Carol, don't let him steal your heart away
The singer repeats his earlier plea to Carol not to let anyone steal her heart away.

I've got to learn to dance if it takes you all night and day
The singer is so smitten with Carol that he's willing to do anything, including dancing all night and day, to impress her.

Oh Carol
The singer concludes the song by addressing Carol directly, emphasizing his affection for her.
