Chorus:
There's a [F]woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street
[G]Stoppin' every man that she does meet
Sayin' [F]if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet
I'll show you my place on Caro[Dm]line [F]Street
She [F]claimed in a loud [G]voice to be a [F]dancer
But [F]I don't think she's [G]cut a rug in [F]years
[F]Listens to the [G]jukebox for her [F]answers
S[F]lowly guzzles [G]twenty-five cent [F]beers
Talks [F] about the men [G]she's known and then[F] some
She's [F]seen them in [G]her dreams and on the [F]street
She [F]slides her dapper legs [G]from beneath the[F] table
As if [F] to reveal some [G]kind of[F]treat
There's a [F]woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street
[G]Stoppin' every man that she does meet
Sayin' [F]if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet
I'll show you my place on Caro[Dm]line [F]Street
Her [F]lover left her [G]stranded in [F] Jamaica
Just [F]right now she can[G]'t recall his [F] name
Perceiving [F] she's the [G]center of [F] attention
And all[F] the lurking eyes[G] they look the [F] same
Weather's [F]got the shrimpers[G] in a [F] frenzy
They're [F]horny and don't [G]need a good [F] excuse
Someone [F]yells and things [G]just start[F] erupting
And in a [F]flash all hell has[G] broken [F] loose
There's a [F]woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street
[G]Stoppin' every man that she does meet
Sayin' [F]if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet
I'll show you my place on Caro[Dm]line [F]Street
When [F]I woke up and looked[G] around the [F] barroom
She was[F] gone and I was[G] black and [F] blue
So be [F]careful when you [G]go to swing your [F] partner
Someone[F] just might take [G]a swing [F] at you
(Repeat chorus twice and fade)
