Neil Diamond Reworks ‘Sweet Caroline’ Lyrics for Coronavirus Pandemic

Neil Diamond

Neil Diamond has gotten in on the trend of reworking lyrics to popular songs to reflect the current Coronavirus pandemic.

The iconic singer-songwriter took to social media to share an acoustic version of his classic hit "Sweet Caroline," but he updated the lyrics to, "Hand...washing hands. Reaching out. Don't touch me, I won't touch you!"

You can check out the video below, along with Diamond's cute dog and stunning fireplace and mantel.
