Stanley Good time Charlie he's a ragamuffin minstrel Just a street walkin' player of guitar Good time Charlie, just a corner hangin' individual Monday morning swinger on a star. Toe tappin' singin' for the people in the street to pass by Pickin' out the smiles from his strings just a-tryin' to get by He'll sing you a song and take you along Playing for free, just for you and for me, yeah. Sidewalk standin' in his hat the coin's a landing Silver tickets to get through another day All day playing is just his way of sayin' That a song can lead you down a better way. Early morning riser and a bad vibe despiser he's cool Words he's a moldin' and the tunes he's a-foldin' his tools He'll sing you a song and take you along Playing for free, just for you and for me. Good time Charlie he's a lazin' dazin' individual Mother nature's child of the streets Good time Charlie he's a hummin' strummin' minstrel Passing smiles out to everyone he meets. And take him along as you move all around about your day Join in his song and in return throw a smile his way He'll sing you a song and take you along Playing for free, just for you and for me, yeah.
