I know it's been a long time since my family moved away

And I've been lookin' forward to this trip back here today

I'd like to hear bout all the folks here in my old hometown

Like whatever happened to Charlie Brown

I see that Bobby Rosenbloom now runs his daddy's store

It looks like Chubby Adams gained two hundred pounds or more

And they've fixed up this old drugstore where we used to hang around

But whatever happened to Charlie Brown

Whatever happened to Charlie Brown I've asked almost everyone in town

No one here recalls the last time they saw him around

Oh whatever happened to Charlie Brown



Too bad about poor Becky Jones she's in a family way

She thought that they'd be married but the boy skipped town one day

I asked her if she'd seen Charlie and she started break him down

Oh whatever happened to Charlie Brown

Whatever happened to...

I wonder what happened to Charlie Brown

Oh whatever happened to Charlie Brown
