Charlie Girl 1965 'Charlie Girl'

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 30 Mar 2005

[Wainright:] The girl with the glasses,
with oil on her face,
[Joe:] The girl with her hair
all over the place,
[Wainright:] That's her?
[Joe:] That's her!
Just take a look at the girl
I'm crazy for.
Ain't she the smashingest smasher
you ever saw?
I'd like to walk up one day to her,
pluck up my courage and say to her
"'Scuse me, M'lady,
it's you that I adore."
You you're great and wonderful,
Charlie Girl,
It's you I've gone a bundle on,
Charlie Girl.
I'm a tonguetied, awkward kind of a fella,
who falls in love with someone smashing
and then can't tell her!
Just one look at you
and I do my nut.
I've got a lot to say
but my mouth stays shut!
Though you scare me half to death,
here we go then
take a breath:
"How about loving me, Charlie Girl?"
You you're great and wonderful,
Charlie Girl,
It's you I've gone a bundle on,
Charlie Girl.
I'm a tonguetied, awkward kind of a fella,
who falls in love with someone smashing
and then can't tell her!

Just one look at you
and I do my nut,
I've got a lot to say
[Wainright:] But your mouth stays shut!
[Joe:] Though she scares me half to death,
Here we go then
take a breath,
How about loving me, Charlie!
How about loving me, Charlie Girl?
