Swinging

There's a little girl in our neighborhood
Her name is Charlotte Johnson and she's really looking good

I had to go and see her
So I called her on the phone
I walked over to her house and this was going on

Her brother was on the sofa
Eating chocolate pie
Her momma was in the kitchen cutting chicken up to fry

Her daddy was in the backyard
Rolling up a garden hose
I was on the porch with Charlotte feeling love down to my toes

And they were swinging (swinging)
Yes they were swinging (swinging)
Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch in this swing
Just a-swinging (swinging)

Yeah we'll be swinging (swinging)
Yes we'll be swinging (swinging)
Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch in this swing
Just a-swinging (swinging)
Now Charlotte's she's a darling she's the apple of my eye
And when I'm on the swing with her it she makes me almost high

And Charlotte is my lover
And she has been since the spring
I just can't believe it started on her front porch in this swing

A-just a swinging (swinging)
A-just a swinging (swinging)
Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch in this swing
Just a-swinging (swinging)

I said little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch in this swing
Just a-swinging (swinging)
