Good Time Charley's
George Strait · The Road Less Traveled [MCA] [2001]
(Jerry Chesnut)
Oh, I know a place called Good Time Charley's
A little four piece band swingin' out of sight
And, I'll be here if you want to party
From nine in the morning 'til twelve at night.
Two miles from town 'cross the railroad track
Turn right at the light and park in the back
You're always welcome don't forget to drop in
Old Good Time Charley did time in the pen.
--- Instrumental ---
Well. I heard talk about a troubled major
Dropped in one night and never came again
They said he'd left with an undertaker
Who started on time two years in the pen.
Well, the beat goes on there's a hardwood floor
And the sound of laughter runnin' out the door
Wall to wall women plenty of ice-cold beer
Any thing you're after you can find it here.
Two miles from town 'cross the railroad track
Turn right at the light and park in the back
You're always welcome don't forget to drop in
At Old Good Time Charley anytime you can.
