Lyrics Eddy Arnold – Carolyn
Text:
Carolyn let me tell you
What I’ve heard about a man today
He didn’t come home from work
And he went away
Till he came to a city bright
In the night time like day
In the night time like day
There they say he met up with some women
Dressed in yellow and scarlet
Oh, their warm lips like a honeycomb
Dripped with honey
And there’s something about the smell of strange perfume
Made him feel warm and not alone
Yes, Carolyn a man will do that sometimes on his own
Sometimes when he’s lonely
And I believe a man might do that sometimes out of spite
But Carolyn a man will do that always
When he’s treated bad at home
Yes, Carolyn a man will do that sometimes on his own
Sometimes when he’s lonely
And I believe a man might do that sometimes out of spite
But Carolyn a man will do that always
When he’s treated bad at home…
