Charlie Boy Lyrics
Charlie boy, don't go to war, first born in forty - four
And Kennedy made him believe we could do much more
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
And Lillian, don't hang your head, love should make you feel good
In uniform you raised a man, who volunteered to stand
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
Play the bugle, play the taps
Make your mothers proud
Raise your rifles to the sky boys
Fire that volley loud
And news was bad on Upland ave., my touch and mourn our loss
And sons rebelled, while fathers yelled, and mothers clutched the cross
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh
Play the bugle, play the taps and
Make your fathers proud
Raise your rifles to the sky boys
Fire that volley loud
