Hey Buddy, it’s just me, ole Crazy Charlie
I may have called you once or twice before
Maybe you didn’t get the message
Cut me off well before I finished
Oh Buddy I feel like a dinosaur
‘Cause my back don’t want to bend
And my feet keep forgettin’ they’re at the end
Of my legs so stiff and getting’ harder to lift
I’ll tell ya right now buddy, life ain’t always a gift
And I'm sure you'd agree,
this old mug ain’t the one I started with
So if whatever you’re doing makes you smile,
Keep on doing it
I did a dumb thing today, he said
Pulled the power saw out of the shed
Oh no, Crazy Charlie don’t you tell me no more
And let me count your fingers so I can be sure
Well, it was just a cut, but it scared ole Charlie bad.
And it made me think how all the things you got become things that you once had
Break/Solo
Hey buddy, you'll be here one day, that's just how it goes
You'll hold yourself together with men's pantyhose
You’ll tell all them kids to get off your grass
And slow as molasses still looks pretty fast
But I ain’t here to preach, I just wanna make someone laugh
And there's a one cent sale for my two cent worth, ‘cause I barely remember half
Hey Buddy, it’s just me, ole Crazy Charlie
We ain’t got forever, so here’s the gist
Give a smile when you need a smile,
And walk with me that final mile,
And you can call it good karma, buddy
And ole Crazy Charlie will say we’re blessed.
