Lyrics A Boy Named Charlie Brown - Rod McKuen

Like the shadows of the morning,
'Climb up to the August afternoon.
Charlie has a way,
Of picking up the day,
Just by walking slowly in a room.
Maybe its a kind of magic
That only little boys can do.
But seeing Charlie smile,
Can make you stop awhile,
And get you feelin' glad youre you.
Hes only a boy named Charlie,
A Boy Named Charlie Brown.
Hes just the kid next door,
Perhaps a little more,
Hes every kid in every town.
Well the world is full of lots of people,

Here and there and all around.
But people after all,
Start out as being small,
Were all A Boy Named Charlie Brown.
Now the shadows of the morning
Have gone beyond the August afternoon,
And Charlie's had his day,
His very special day,
His Morning and his Evening and his Noon.
The World is full of lots of people,
Here and there and all around,
But people after all,
Start out as being small,
And we're all a boy named Charlie Brown!
