Carol
Beatles · Live at the BBC
steal your heart away.
Well I've got to 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 too far back on the highway
not too long a ride.
You take your car along
and you park it outside.
A little cutie takes your hat
and you can thank her, ma'am,
'cos every time you're gonna drive,
you find the joint is jammed.
Oh Carol, don't let him
steal your heart away.
Well I've got to learn to dance
if it takes me all night and day. Auw.
Well if you want to hear some music
like the boys all play,
hold tight, tap your foot,
don't let it carry you away.
Don't let the heat overcome you
'cos they play so loud
while the music will treat you
when they get a crowd.
Well you can dance
I know you will, you thought.
I got my eyes on you baby,
'cos you dance so good.
Don't let him
steal your heart away.
I've got to learn to dance
if it takes me all night and day.
Well I've got to learn to dance
if it takes you all night and day.
