Charley, my boy, oh Charley, my boy
You thrill me, you chill me, with shivers of joy
You've got that kinda sorta bit of a way
That makes me, takes me, tell me what shall I say

And when we dance I read in your glance
Whole pages and ages of love and romance
They tell me Romeo was some lover, too
But boy, he should have taken lessons from you
You seem to start where others get through
Oh, Charley, my boy.

Charley, my boy, oh Charley, my boy
You thrill me, you chill me, with shivers of joy
You've got that kinda sorta bit of a way
That makes me, takes me, tell me what shall I say
And when we dance I read in your glance
Sweet notions and oceans of love and romance
Your mother told me that I shouldn't be kissed
But then your coaxing ways are hard to resist
My lips refuse, but your eyes insist
Oh, Charley, my boy.
Charley, my boy, oh Charley, my boy
You thrill me, you chill me, with shivers of joy
You've got that kinda sorta bit of a way
That makes me, takes me, tell me what shall I say

And when we dance I read in your glance
Whole pages and ages of love and romance
They tell me Romeo was some lover, too
But boy, he should have taken lessons from you
You seem to start where others get through
Oh, Charley, my boy.
