Charlie - Live
Charlie, I'll make a deal with you
After which you can do anything you want to
I know I've got the leg up, as you're still only made up
But baby, you know I wrote this song for you
Don't go kissing boys, don't make a lot of noise
Let daddy sing his songs, just be real good
Treat your teachers nice and find a healthy appetite
For what you really, really want to do
And if in fact you're married before the day I'm buried
Follow just my one and only rule
In everything you do, just remember through and through
Be my best friend, baby, I'll be one for you
Oh, Charlie, you'll be strong
Charlie, you'll be smart
Charlie, you'll be anything you want to from the start
Charlie, oh, my baby, you'll be every bit the lady
That'll go on breaking this old lonely heart
I know just how you'll be, 'cause you'll be just like me
Charming, so alarming and a little crazy
The queen of some sand castle, an abrasive, rowdy hassle
But kind and loving, fresh and bright, I know
Come to me with problems, I swear, I won't go try to solve 'em
I'll only tell you everything I know
Like standing tall was all I had
Like boys are bad and love's a fact
That no one ever learns to just let go
Oh, Charlie, you'll be strong
Charlie, you'll be smart
Charlie, you'll be anything you want to from the start
Charlie, oh, my baby, you'll be every bit the lady
That'll go on breaking this old lonely heart
Charlie, there's just one little thing
Before we meet, some lovely spring
I have to go, and you find you a nice mama
She'll be just like me and you, perfect in just what we do
A love as strong as father and his daughter
Charlie, you'll be strong
And Charlie, you'll be smart
Charlie, you'll be anything you want to from the start
Charlie, oh, my baby, you'll be every bit the lady
That'll go on breaking this old lonely heart
Oh, my darling charlie, oh
Thank you
After which you can do anything you want to
I know I've got the leg up, as you're still only made up
But baby, you know I wrote this song for you
Don't go kissing boys, don't make a lot of noise
Let daddy sing his songs, just be real good
Treat your teachers nice and find a healthy appetite
For what you really, really want to do
And if in fact you're married before the day I'm buried
Follow just my one and only rule
In everything you do, just remember through and through
Be my best friend, baby, I'll be one for you
Oh, Charlie, you'll be strong
Charlie, you'll be smart
Charlie, you'll be anything you want to from the start
Charlie, oh, my baby, you'll be every bit the lady
That'll go on breaking this old lonely heart
I know just how you'll be, 'cause you'll be just like me
Charming, so alarming and a little crazy
The queen of some sand castle, an abrasive, rowdy hassle
But kind and loving, fresh and bright, I know
Come to me with problems, I swear, I won't go try to solve 'em
I'll only tell you everything I know
Like standing tall was all I had
Like boys are bad and love's a fact
That no one ever learns to just let go
Oh, Charlie, you'll be strong
Charlie, you'll be smart
Charlie, you'll be anything you want to from the start
Charlie, oh, my baby, you'll be every bit the lady
That'll go on breaking this old lonely heart
Charlie, there's just one little thing

I have to go, and you find you a nice mama
She'll be just like me and you, perfect in just what we do
A love as strong as father and his daughter
Charlie, you'll be strong
And Charlie, you'll be smart
Charlie, you'll be anything you want to from the start
Charlie, oh, my baby, you'll be every bit the lady
That'll go on breaking this old lonely heart
Oh, my darling charlie, oh
Thank you
