Looking out for a girl named Caroline
The kind of girl everybody like to meet
Standing there like she couldn't care

Hoping her heart never missed a beat
She got her look and you know that it's always there


I wouldn't have it any other way
Fact is you can take her anywhere
There is no reason but I gotta say


She's your very best friend
When you're digging in a hole

She'd read a good book
But she loves her rock and roll
You say what you want

But she's gonna take control
Caroline, you know, got a lot of soul


Gotta run, gotta hide, get outside of town
Somewhere we go she isn't far behind
Seems like another day in paradise

Another day for me to lose my mind
Now she'd be there, anywhere, didn't have a chance
And I believe everybody knows

She is the girl that you can't ignore
And isn't that the way it always goes?


She's your very best friend
When you're digging in a hole
She'd read a good book

But she loves her rock and roll
You say what you want
But she's gonna take control

Caroline, you know, got a lot of soul
So I'm never going back, gotta keep on moving on
Catch you doing this, when it's over dead and gone

No more looking cool down the barrel of a gun
Come on Caroline, still we gotta run
Come on Caroline


Got her look and you know that it's always there
I wouldn't have it any other way

Fact is you can take her anywhere
There is no reason but I gotta say


She's your very best friend
When you're digging in a hole
She'd read a good book

But she loves her rock and roll
You say what you want
But she's gonna take control

Caroline, you know, got a lot of soul
So I'm never going back, gotta keep on moving on
Catch you doing this, when it's over dead and gone

No more looking cool down the barrel of a gun
Come on Caroline, still we gotta run
Come on Caroline


She's your very best friend
When you're digging in a hole

She'd read a good book
But she loves her rock and roll
You say what you want

But she's gonna take control
Caroline, you know, got a lot of soul
