Clap Hands! Here Comes Charlie Lyrics - Lester Leaps In - Count Basie

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, good time Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

This way, join the party 

I say, meet McCarty 

Hey, hey, Charlie take a bow 

Ginger ale and white rock for his table 

Grab a chair, move over there 

And let him sit right next to Mabel 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, good time Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, good time Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

This way, meet The Dollies 

I say, Zeigfield Follies 

Hey Charlie, take a bow 

See the smile on all those hungry faces 

They can tell that he's a buyer 

From those wide and open spaces 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, good time Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

See the smile on all those hungry faces 

They can tell that he's a buyer 

From those wide and open spaces 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie, oh boy, yeah 

Ginger ale and white rock for his table 

Grab a chair, move over there 

And let him wait 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, good time Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

This way, join the party 

I say, meet McCarty 

Hey, hey, Charlie take a bow 

See the smile on all those hungry faces 

They can tell that he's a buyer 

From those wide and open spaces 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie 

Clap hands, here comes Charlie now 

He's a big man with the ladies 

And sail her with his doubt 

When he starts to wail and holler, 'Go man go' 

Oh boy, there was Charlie 

What joy, swingin' Charlie 

Clap hands, there goes Charlie now
