You know, Hag wrote every song in this album
With the exception, of one
And that's the one, that comes up next
This song, was written by a lifelong friend, of Merle's
Tommy Collins
And it deals with, being frustrated
And trying to get something across, to someone
Before, it's too late

Carolyn, let me tell you
What I heard, about a man today
"He didn't come home, from work like I did"
"he just went away"
"And he kept going, until he came to this city"
"And it was bright in the nighttime, like day"
"There, they say, he met up"
"With these women, dressed in yellow scarf

"And had warm lips, like a honeycomb"
"That's dripping sweet"
"And there's something, about the smell"
"A strange perfume, that made him feel warm"
. And suddenly, he's not alone

Yes, Carolyn, a man, might do that
Sometimes, on his own
And sometimes, when he's lonely
And I believe, a man might do that
Sometimes, out of spite
"But Carolyn, he's gonna do it every time, honey
If he's treated bad, at home

Yes, Carolyn, a man might do that
Sometimes, on his own
And sometimes, when he's lonely
And I believe, a man might do that
Sometimes, out of spite
"But Carolyn, he'll do it every time, honey"
If he's treated bad at home
