Charlie`s Shoes (1962) Lyrics

Id like to be in Charlies shoes thats what I always said

 Cause he had you and everything tied with a golden thread

 Then Charlie left and went away and when I got the news

 It wasnt long till I was walking round in Charlies shoes

 

 Now Im wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore

 Walking back and forth across the floor

 The troubles that drove him away Ive got for company

 These nights in Charlies shoes are killing me

 

 The greener grass that turned my head so swiftly did turn brown

 Cause every little dream Ive built shes always tearing down

 I never knew old Charlies shoes could have so many tacks

 Of disappointing sorrows and I wish he had em back

 

 Now Im wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore

 Walking back and forth across the floor

 The troubles that drove him away Ive got for company

 These nights in Charlies shoes are killing me
