Lyrics Charlie's Shoes - Remastered - Billy Walker

I'd like to be in Charlie's shoes
That's 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 wasn't long 'til I was walking 'round in Charlie's shoes

Now I'm wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore
Walking back and forth across the floor
The troubles that drove him away
I've got for company
These nights in Charlie's shoes are killing me

The greener grass that turned my head
So swiftly did turn brown
'Cause every little dream I've built
She's always tearing down
I never knew old Charlie's shoes
Could have so many tacks
Of disappointing sorrows
And I wish he had 'em back

'Cause I'm wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore
Walking back and forth across the floor
The troubles that drove him away
I've got for company
These nights in Charlie's shoes are killing me
