He blew into town like a paper sack In a stolen car with a shotgun in the back He said "She can't run now, she can't hide I'm gonna get her back for her lies lies lies" He taught her how to pout and he taught her how to tease And he taught her how to beg when...

She called me up the other day And left a message on my machine She called to say you broke her heart And she wondered if I'd seen you I didn't know what to do I never called her back Oh how could I break the news like that? No I don't want to see Caroline Do...
