Lyrics of Charlie's shoes

I'd like to be in charlie's shoes
That's what i always said
Cause he had you and ev'rything tied with a golden thread
Then charlie left and went away
And when i got the news, it wasn't long
Till i was walkin' 'round in charlie's shoes
Now i'm wearing out the shoes that charlie wore
Walkin' back and forth across the floor

The troubles that drove him away i've got for company
These nights since charlie's shoes are killin' me
The greener grass that turned my head
So swiftly did turn brown
'cause ev'ry little dream i build she's always tearin' down
I never knew that charlie's shoes
Could have so many tacks of disappointing sorrows and i wish he had 'em back
