OH, CAROL ! 

Oh! Carol,
I am but a fool,
Darling I love you tho' you treat me cruel,
You hurt me and you made me cry
But if you leave me I will surely die.
Darling there will never be another
Cause I love you so, don't ever leave me,
Say you'll never go
I will always want you for my sweetheart
No matter what you do
Oh! Carol, I'm so in love with you.
Oh, Carol... Darling..

 
OH, CAROL !
Neil Sedaka 撰寫於1958年, 給前度女友 Carol Klein, 以一表心聲的作品; 她就是後來成為樂壇的 Singer-Song Writer 才女 Carole King。此曲翌年登上 American Charts 第九位, 並且给 Neil Sedaka 登上 1960 Italian Chart 第一位的歌曲。
 

1963年, Carole King 回應一曲給 Neil,
並加上劇埸版的 Answer Song: "OH, NEIL!" 給 Neil Sedaka....
ANSWER SONG - OH NEIL !

Oh! Neil
I've loved you for so long
I never dreamed you'd put me in a song
I'm Carol
And I live in Tennessee
I never hoped that you'd remember me
Darling, when I saw you at the square dance
My pulse skipped a beat
My heart felt so heavy
Like I had too much to eat
Then you took me walking in the moonlight
It was, oh, so sublime
I had too much molasses
And your lips stuck to mine
Oh! Neil
I'd even give up a month's supply of chewin' tobacky
Just to be known as Mrs. Neil Sedaky
My Grandpappy, he don't like your records
He said if I play them, I will surely die
Lookout, I see him comin' with his shotgun!
There's nothing left to do
Oh! Neil
I'll surely die for you!
(Shotgun blast) (Grandpappy)
I told that gal not to play them dad-gum Neil Sedaky records!
