{Allan Clarke vocal:}

When we were at school our games were simple

I played the janitor you played a monitor.

Then you played with older boys and prefects.

What's the attraction in what they're doing?



{All 3 vocal:}

Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?

Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?



{Tony Hicks vocal:}

You're always something special to me.

Quite independent, never caring.

You lost your charm as you were aging

Where is your magic dissappearing?



{All 3 vocal:}

Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?

Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?



{Allan Clarke lead vocal:}

You're so, so like a woman to me

(so like a woman to me)

So (so) so like (so) a woman to me

So like a woman to me.



{interlude}



Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?

Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?



{Graham Nash vocal:}

People live and learn but you're still learning

you use my mind and I'll be your teacher.

When the lesson's over you'll be with me

Then I'll hear the other people saying:



{All 3 vocal:}

Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?

Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game now

can anybody play?



Carrie Anne (Carrie Anne, Carrie Anne)
