(INTRO)
Carlene lives in the country in a tarpaper shack
but when she comes to town, she drives a Cadillac
Carlene, you pretty thing
darlin' Carlene, you pretty little thing
I'm gonna buy you a diamond ring
Carlene has got a sister, her name is Mary Jane
and when they get together, they drive the boys insane
Carlene, you pretty thing
darlin' Carlene, you pretty little thing
I'm gonna buy you a diamond ring
(PIANO SOLO)
aw come here baby
I wanna dance with choo
and when they hit the dance floor, the boys all get in line
Carlene tells her sister, be sure an' take your time
I was in the back, number forty-nine
now I'm number one, and I wanna make her mine
patience is a virtue, one you can't conceal
and when I finally dance with her, she'll know just how I feel
Carlene, you pretty thing
darlin' Carlene, you pretty little thing
I'm gonna buy you a diamond ring
well I'm gonna buy you a diamond ring
I'm gonna buy that little girl a big ol' diamond ring
one two three
whew
I don't know
I want to raise that porkly? we wed?
ow
don't mind me if I step on the toilet paper
I'm tryin' my best
not bad for a goober, uh?
