Swingin'

(album: Lady And Gentlemen - 2011)

There's a little boy, in our neighborhood.
His name is Charlie Jackson, and he's really looking good.
I had to go and see him, so I called him on the phone.
I walked over to his house, and this was going on.

His brother was on the sofa, eating chocolate pie.
His Momma was in the kitchen, cutting chicken up to fry.
His Daddy was in the backyard, rolling up a garden hose.
I was on the porch with Charlie, feeling love down to my toes.
and we were swinging (swingin')
yes we were swinging (swingin')

Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swinging (swingin')

Yeah, and we'll be swinging. (swingin')
Yes, we'll be swinging. (swingin')
Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swinging (swingin')

Now Charlieshe's a darling, she's the apple of my eye.
When I'm on the swing with him, it makes me almost high.
And Charlie is my lover, and he has been since the spring.
I just can't believe it started on his front porch in this swing.
Just a swinging. (swingin')
ah-just a swinging. (swingin')

Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swinging (swingin')

I said Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swinging (swingin') (swingin')
