Nat Stuckey - Carolyn lyrics

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 nighttime like day

There they say he met up with some women dressed in yellow and scarlet

Their warm lips like a honeycomb dripped with honey

And 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 and sometimes when he's lonely

And I believe that man might do that sometimes out of spite

But Carolyn a man will do that always when he's treated bad at home

[ steel ]

Yes Carolyn a man will do that...
