Lyrics
Oh, Carol
Expressing concern for Carol, urging her not to let someone steal her heart.
Don't let him steal your heart away
Reiterating the warning not to let someone take away her affection.
I'm gonna learn to dance
Committing to learning how to dance, suggesting a willingness to make an effort.
If it takes me all night and day
Emphasizing determination to dance, even if it requires spending the entire night and day.
Climb into my machine so we can groove on out
Inviting Carol to join the speaker in a car, signaling a desire to have a good time together.
I know some swinging little joint where we can jump and shout
Promoting a specific venue for dancing, describing it as a lively place to enjoy music and dancing.
It's not too far back on the highway not so long a ride
Providing details about the location, indicating it's not far and accessible by highway.
You park the car out in the open you can walk inside
Advising to park the car openly, suggesting an easy entrance to the venue.
A little cutie takes your hat and you can thank her ma'am
Painting a picture of the welcoming atmosphere, where someone takes your hat and expresses gratitude.
'Cause every time you make the scene you find the joint is jammed
Highlighting the popularity of the venue, emphasizing that it's often crowded.
Oh, Carol

Now, if you want to hear some music like the boys are playing

Hold tight, bang your foot don't let it carry you away
Describing the energetic music being played by the boys, encouraging active enjoyment.
Don't let the heat overcome you when they play so loud
Cautioning against being overwhelmed by the loud music.
Won't the music intrigue you when they get a crowd

Well you can't dance I know you would you could
