Jerry Jeff Walker - Charlie Dunn lyrics

Your rating:


Well, if you're ever in Austin, Texas

A little run down on your sole

I'm gonna tell you the name of a man to see

I'm gonna tell you right where to go

He's working in Capitol Saddlery

And he's sewing in the back of the place

He's old Charlie Dunn, the little frail one

with the smilin' leathery face



[Chorus]

Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see

Charlie done the boots that are on my feet

It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease

Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see



Charlie's been make boots over there

He says, about fifty some-odd years

And once you wear a pair of his hand-made boots

you know you'll never wear a store-bought pair

Charlie can tell what's wrong with your feet

Just by feeling them with his hand

And he can take a look at the boots you wear

And know a whole lot about you, man



(Chorus)



[Bridge] 

Now, ol' Buck's up front, he's countin' his gold 

Charlie's in the back patchin' up the soles 

of the people comin' in, smilin' at him 

They all wonder how's ol' Charlie been 

And ol' Buck's makin' change, he never sees no one 

He never understood the good thing that Charlie done 



Yeah, ol' Charlie never had his name on the sign 

He never put a mark in his boots 

He just hopes that you can remember him 

The same way that he does you 

He keeps your measurements in this little book 

So you can order more boots later on 

Well I'm writin' down some of Ol' Charlie's size 

'Cause I'm makin' him up this song 



(Chorus)



Yeah, ol' Buck's makin' change, he never sees no one 

And He never understood the good thing that Charlie done
