John Mellencamp – Carolina Shag

John Mellencamp – Carolina Shag Lyrics

Artist: John Mellencamp
Song: Carolina Shag

Next time you need a holiday
I’ll tell you what me and a couple friends did
We got into a van and drove to the Carolina coast
Laid on the beach and hid

Well, the other guys didn’t notice her
I tell you what, I sure did
Well, she asked me to come up and talk to her
And up next to her I slid

She said
Do you wanna go down to South America
No, crazy down there
She said “Can I show you this little beach town?”

I said “Baby, I don’t care”
And she said
Do you do the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance?
Do you do the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance?

Down in those Carolina beach towns
They got a pretty, pretty girls
They got a hundred beach clubs on every street corner
Probably the best in the world

And that old screaming rock and roll
Comes outta ol’ Johnny’s dollars
She was the first to arrive, the last to leave
And man, I can hear her holler

She said “Are you gonna be down there tonight?”
I said “Baby, you know that I will”
She said “You can come by yourself or you can bring your friends
‘Cause everybody’s there”

And they’re doing the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance, yeah, yeah
Doing the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance, yeah, yeah, yeah
It’s a crazy old world we live in
And sometimes you need to relax

And when the nine to five is a monkey on your back
And your bossman is wielding his big axe
If you don’t like it down there
They give you your money back

And I’ll bet you one thing that once you leave
You can’t wait to get back
‘Cause they’re doing the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance
Doing the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance, yeah, yeah

Doing the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance, yeah, yeah
Doing the Carolina shag, dance, dance, dance, yeah, yeah, yeah
O they dance, see ’em dance, yeah
