Charleville Songtext
von Slim Dusty

Well I met her at a disco in the School of Arts Hotel,
The kind of place that some girls won′t attend,
The moon shone over Edwards Street and later I could tell,
I'd never be a lonely man again.

In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
There′s a pretty little woman says she'll say I will,
In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
There's a pretty little woman says she′ll say I will.

We′re gonna have a wedding cake that's twenty layers high,
And fifteen hundred family and friends,
We′ll cook ourselves a dozen lambs and drink the district dry,
Then whip around the hat and start again.


In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
There's a pretty little woman says she′ll say I will
In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
There's a pretty little woman says she′ll say I will.

Well I've seen Girls in Paris to humble any man,
I've seen Earls embarrassed by models in Milan,
But I′ve seen enough to know the only girl I need to see
And she′s waiting back in Charleville for me.

In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
There's a pretty little woman says she′ll say I will
In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
There's a pretty little woman says she′ll say I will

In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
In Charleville (in Charleville), in Charleville (in Charleville)
There's a pretty little woman says she′ll say I will.
