Woman Goin' Crazy on Caroline Street - Live

1975

There's a woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on Caroline Street

She claimed in a loud voice to be a dancer

But I don't think she's cut a rug in years

Listens to the jukebox for her answers

Slowly guzzles twenty-five cent beers

Talks about the men she's known and then some

She's seen them in her dreams and on the street

She slides her dapper legs from beneath the table

As if to reveal some kind of treat

There's a woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on Caroline Street

Her lover left her stranded in Jamaica

Just right now she can't recall his name

Perceiving she's the center of attention

And all the lurking eyes they look the same

Weather's got the shrimpers in a frenzy

They're horny and don't need a good excuse

Someone yells and things just start erupting

And in a flash all hell has broken loose

There's a woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on Caroline Street

When I woke up and looked around the barroom

She was gone and I was black and blue

So be careful when you go to swing your partner

Someone just might take a swing at you

There's a woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on Caroline Street

Ya there's a woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet

Sayin' if you'll be gentle if you'll be sweet

I'll show you my place on Caroline Street

There's a woman goin' crazy on Caroline Street

Stoppin' every man that she does meet ...
