Caroline my baby Caroline my sweet
If I marry Caroline how happy I would be
I wouldn’t need no whiskey I wouldn’t need no wine
I wouldn’t need much of anything if Caroline was mine
Her daddy is a preacher and may he rot in hell
I’d sell my soul to satan for a bucket from your well
Cuz I know that he don’t like me and I know he’ll disapprove
But I’m going to marry caroline if it’s the last thing that I do

Breakdown – C & D back and forth
Well if I was a painter I’d put you down in paint
I’d hang you by the mona lisa and put that girl to shame
Or if I was a sailor and sailed the seven seas
I’d roll across the ocean just to bring you home with me.
Oh caroline my baby oh caroline my sweet
You make a man go crazy why won’t you come to me
Cuz I’ve been feeling lonesome and feelin kinda blue
I think I’d rather die than to be away from you
Bridge or whatever
G F#m/D Em F#m
She said boy you know you’ve caught my eye
G F#m/D Em F#m
And I know you’re sweeter than apple pie
G F#m/D Em F#m
But I like my men completely wild

So baby keep on tryin – oh oh oh oh
