Smokie - Oh Carol (1978)

Smokie - Oh Carol Lyrics

I was out cruisin', gettin' late and I was losin'
When I saw you walkin' my way
So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want
But so do I and I ain't losin' today

Well your hips were swingin' and your jeans were clingin'
You were driving me out of my mind
On a hot afternoon when there's nothin' to do
You're not the sort of thing a fellow should find

So I pulled on over, tossed your hair off your shoulder
As you turned and you looked my way
Oh you would have died or you'd have skinned me alive
If I'd have said what I wanted to say

So bein' polite said what you doin' tonight
You said it just so happens I'm free
You got all the right curves and all the right words
And that's alright by me

Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away, You got me countin' my nights and days
Oh I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay, Oh Carol, nobody's done it before
Oh baby you've opened the door, Oh Carol you can do it some more

Well if you're ready for this when we started to kiss
She said hold on a minute or two
Well naturally I knew it couldn't be me
I said baby what's troublin' you
She said I'm not sixteen if you know what I mean
So we sat and we talked for a while
But when we finally kissed you know she didn't resist
And I must say she did it with style

Oh Carol you got me eating my heart away, You got me countin' my nights and days
Oh I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay, Oh Carol, nobody's done it before
Oh baby you've opened the door, Oh Carol you can do it some more - alright

Well I was out cruisin', gettin' late and I was losin'
When I saw you walking my way
So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want
But so do I and I ain't losin' today

Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away, You got me countin' my nights and days
Oh I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay, Oh Carol, nobody's done it before
Oh baby you've opened the door, Oh Carol you can do it some more

Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away, You got me countin' my nights and days
