There's a little girl in our neighborhood
Her name is Charlotte Johnson and she's really lookin' good
I had to go and see her, so I called her on the phone
I walked over to her house and this was goin' on
Her brother was on the sofa eatin' chocolate pie
Her momma was in the kitchen cuttin' chicken up to fry
Her daddy was in the backyard rollin' up a garden hose
I was on the porch with Charlotte feelin' love down to my toes
And we were swingin', swingin', yeah just-a swingin', swingin'
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
A-swingin', swingin'
Yeah, and we were swingin', swingin', yeah, just-a swingin', swingin'
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
A-swingin', swingin'
Now Charlette's she's a darlin', she's the apple of my eye
And when I'm on the swing with her she makes me almost high
Charlotte is my lover, she has been since the spring
Just can't believe it started on her front porch in this swing
We were swingin', swingin' yeah, just-a swingin', swingin'
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
A-swingin', swingin'
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
A-swingin', swingin', swingin'
