Charlie's Shoes Lyrics - Singles - 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 till 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
