Sweet Caroline - Lyrics - Waylon Jennings
Waylon Arnold Jennings was an American singer, songwriter, musician and actor. Jennings began playing guitar at 8 and began performing at 12 on KVOW radio. His first band was The Texas Longhorns. Jennings worked as a D.J. on KVOW, KDAV, KYTI, and KLLL. In 1958, Buddy Holly arranged Jennings's first recording session, of âJole Blonâ and âWhen Sin Stops .â Holly hired him to play bass. In Clear Lake, Iowa, Jennings gave up his seat on the ill-fated flight that killed Holly and others to J. P. Richardson, who was suffering from a cold. The day of the flight was later known as The Day the Music Died. Jennings then worked as a D.J. in Coolidge, Arizona, and Phoenix. He formed a rockabilly club band, The Waylors. He recorded for independent label Trend Records and A&M Records, before succeeding with RCA Victor after achieving creative control.
Tip: Highlight text to annotate itX
Where it began I can't begin knowin'
But I know it's growin' strong
First was the spring and spring became the summer
Who'd believe you'd come along.
Hands touching, hands reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good
I'm inclined to believe they never would.
Look at the night doesn't seem so lonely
Fill it up with only two
And when I hurt it runs off my shoulder
How can I hurt when I'm holdin' you?
Warm touching, warm reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Oh sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good
I'm inclined to believe they never would.
Sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good
I'm inclined to believe they never would.
Oh sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good...
