Carrie<br>

Julie, Julie! Do you like him?<br>

<br>

Julie<br>

I don't know.<br>

<br>

Carrie<br>

Did you like it when he talked to you today,<br>

When he put you on the carousel that way, mm mm mm<br>

Did you like that?<br>

<br>

Julie<br>

I'd rather not say.<br>

<br>

Carrie<br>

You're a queer one, Julie Jordan,<br>

You were quieter and deeper than a well<br>

An' ye never tell me nuthin'!<br>

<br>

Julie<br>

There's nuthin' that a keer to choose to tell.<br>

<br>

Carrie<br>

You been acting most peculiar,<br>

Every morning you're awake ahead of me,<br>

Always settin' by the winder.<br>

<br>

Julie<br>

I like to watch the river meet the sea.<br>

<br>

Carrie<br>

When we work in the mill, weavin' at the loom<br>

You gaze absent-minded at the roof<br>

And half the time your shuttle gets twisted in the threads,<br>

'Till you can't tell the warp from the woof.<br>

<br>

Julie<br>

'Taint so.<br>

<br>

Carrie<br>

You're a queer one, Julie Jordan,<br>

You won't ever tell a body what you think.<br>

You're as tight-lipped as an oyster,<br>

And as silent as an old Sahara spink!<br>

Julie, I've been busted to tell you something lately...<br>

<br>

Julie<br>

You have?!<br>

<br>

Carrie<br>

The reason I didn't care to tell you before is 'cause<br>

you didn't have a fella of your own. Hmm hmm...<br>

But now that you got one, I can tell you about mine!<br>

<br>

Julie<br>

I'm glad you gotta fella, Carrie!<br>
