lyrics

[Chorus]
Carrie Ann oh Carrie Ann oh won't you be my girl?
Carrie Ann oh Carrie Ann you're my entire world
I'm casting out my line in hopes that you will take a bite oh
Carrie Ann oh Carrie Ann won't you be mine tonight?

Saw you at the garden party in the middle of the grass
Dancing barefoot with your girlfriends drinking liquor from a flask
We stopped to take a breather, you grabbed everyone in sight
To come and join the party as the day became the night
With flies enough to eat ya and the June bugs in the air
You were trying not to giggle but I liked it, to be fair
Whispered to your friend no doubt about my manly charm
Came to me and said “You've got a spider on your arm”

[Chorus]

I was playing in the band and you were toying with my heart
What I thought was Cupid's arrow was a misguided lawn dart
I blacked out for a second, when my vision became clear
She said “My aim is not the best, but I brought you a beer”
Stumbled off into the night, which ended pretty quick
I was feeling awful dizzy and I felt a little sick
Made it to your cabin where I passed out in the tub
I woke up you were next to me I knew that it was love!

[Chorus]

Carrie Ann oh Carrie Ann won't you be mine tonight
Carrie Ann oh Carrie Ann won't you be mine toniiiiiiight
O.K.
