Charlie's Shoes Lyrics - Country Love Songs

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 

Around 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 build 

She's always tearing down. 

I never knew that Charlie's shoes 

Could have so many tacks 

Of disappointing sorrows 

And I wish he had 'em back. 

'Cause I'm wearing out...
