Oh Neil
Oh! Neil
I've loved you for so long
I never dreamed
You'd put me in a song
I'm Carole
And I live in Tennessee
I never hoped
That you'd remember me
Darling, when I saw you at the square dance
My pulse skipped a beat
My heart felt so heavy
Like I had too much to eat
Then, you took me walkin' in the moonlight
It was all so sublime
Now, I had too much molasses
And your lips stuck to mine
Oh! Neil
I'd even give up a month's supply of chewing tobacky
Just to be known as Mrs. Neil Sedaky
My gran' pappy
He don't like your records
He said if I play them
I will surely die
Look out! I see him coming with his shotgun
There's nothing left to do
Oh! Neil
I'll surely die for you!
(I told that gal not to play them dag-gone Neil Sedaky records!)
I've loved you for so long
I never dreamed
You'd put me in a song
I'm Carole
And I live in Tennessee
I never hoped
That you'd remember me
Darling, when I saw you at the square dance
My pulse skipped a beat
My heart felt so heavy
Like I had too much to eat
Then, you took me walkin' in the moonlight
It was all so sublime
Now, I had too much molasses
And your lips stuck to mine
Oh! Neil
I'd even give up a month's supply of chewing tobacky
Just to be known as Mrs. Neil Sedaky
My gran' pappy
He don't like your records
He said if I play them
I will surely die
Look out! I see him coming with his shotgun
There's nothing left to do
Oh! Neil
I'll surely die for you!
(I told that gal not to play them dag-gone Neil Sedaky records!)
