Caroline, my killer, my bystander
Caroline, my lovely, my replacement
For the present day
Caroline, my rag doll, my shiny penny
Caroline, her Ruxpin, my replacement
For the present day
Maybe we could fall in love
When the fallout is through
I could kiss those oubliette lips
And you'd forget how soon
You'll be walking in my shoes
Singing those old-time blues
Singing those old-time blues
Singing those old-time blues
Well, singing those old-time blues
Well, you know my baby left me
True love's so hard to find
Well, you know my baby left me
True love is so hard to find
Hey
My baby went and left me
For a girl named Caroline
Whoa...
Caroline, don't bother
Dance for no one
No, Caroline, don't bother
Dance for no one
Oh, Caroline
Oh, Caroline
Don't you think it's sad
The way we're left behind
And we don't even seem to mind?
Don't even seem to mind
We don't even seem to mind
