Oh, Carol, don't let him steal your heart away

Well, I'm a-gonna learn to dance

If it takes me all night and day

Well, come into my machine, so we can move on out

I know a jumping little joint

Where we can jump and shout

It's not so far back on the highway

Not so long a ride

Well, you can take your car along

Then, you park it outside

A little cutie takes your hand

And you can thank her, ma'am

Well, every time you go to jive

You find the joint is jammed

Oh, Carol, don't let him steal your heart away

Well, I'm a-gonna learn to dance

If it takes me all night and day

Well, if you wanna hear some music

Like the boys all play

Hold tight, pass your foot

Don't let him carry it away

Well, don't let the heat overwork you

'Cause they play so loud

The music will intrigue you

When they get a crowd

Well, you can dance, I know you wish you could

I got my eyes on you, baby, 'cause you dance so good

Don't let him steal your heart away

I've gotta learn to dance, if it takes me all night and day

Well, I'm a-gonna learn to dance

If it takes me all night and day
