Lời bài hát: Steve Wariner. Carmelita.

Oh Carmelita, why you been gone so long?
I've been sittin' here starin' out the window
Huggin' on the telephone

I've been searchin' my mind, tryin' hard to find
Somethin' that I did wrong
Oh Carmelita, why you been gone so long?

I called your mama and your sister
I even called your daddy too
He said, ?Listen here Mister, yeah, this one's up to you?

He said, ?You know, I love my baby
But she's hard headed like her mom
I've already fought that battle now yours has just begun?

Oh Carmelita, why you been gone so long?
I've been sittin' here starin' out the window
Huggin' on the telephone

I've been searchin' my mind, tryin' hard to find
Somethin' that I did wrong
Oh Carmelita, why you been gone so long?

You know, you really got me shook up
Yeah, you really cut me down to size
But I'm never gonna give up 'til I look you in the eyes

And I hear your explanation
And you seal it with a kiss
It's gonna take a ton of your lovin' to get me over this

Oh Carmelita, why you been gone so long?
I've been sittin' here starin' out the window
Huggin' on the telephone

I've been searchin' my mind, tryin' hard to find
Somethin' that I did wrong
Oh Carmelita, why you been gone so long?
