Eb
Oh, Carol
Bb
Don't let him steal your heart away
F
I'm gonna learn to dance
Eb Bb
If it takes me all night and day
 
Bb
Climb into my machine so we can groove on out
I know some swinging little joint where we can jump and shout
Eb
It's not too far back on the highway not so long a ride
Bb
You park the car out in the open you can walk inside
F
A little cutie takes your hat and you can thank her ma'am
Bb
'Cause every time you make the scene you find the joint is jammed
 
(intro)
 
Oh, Carol
Don't let him steal your heart away
I'm gonna learn to dance
If it takes me all night and day
 
(intro)
(solo)
 
Now, if you want to hear some music like the boys are playing
Hold tight, bang your foot don't let it carry you away
Don't let the heat overcome you when they play so loud
Won't the music intrigue you when they get a crowd
Well you can't dance I know you would you could
I got my eyes on you, baby, cause you dance so good
 
(intro)
 
Oh, Carol
Don't let him steal your heart away
I'm gonna learn to dance
If it takes me all night and day
 
(intro)
 
Oh, Carol
Don't let him steal your heart away
I've got to learn to dance
If it takes me all night and day
