Carolyn - Johnny Paycheck

Carolyn let me tell you what I heard about a man today

He didn’t come home from work and he went away

'Til he came to a city, bright in the night time like day

There they say he met with some women dressed in yellow and scarlet

Their warm lips like a honeycomb, dripped with honey

And somethin' about the smell of strange perfume

Made him feel warm, and not alone

Yes Carolyn a man will do that sometimes on his own

And sometimes when he’s lonely

And I believe a man will do that sometimes out of spite

But Carolyn, a man will do that always

When he’s treated bad at home

Yes Carolyn a man will do that sometimes on his own

And sometimes when he’s lonely

And I believe a man will do that sometimes out of spite

But Carolyn, a man will do that always

When he’s treated bad at home
