A Boy Named Charlie Brown

A Boy Named Charlie Brown
Like the shadows of the morning
Climb up to the August afternoon
Charlie has a way of picking up a day
Just by walking slowly in a room

Maybe it's a kind of magic
That only little boys can do
But seeing Charlie smile
Can make you stop a while
And get you feeling glad you're you
He's only a boy named Charlie
A boy named Charlie Brown
He's just the kid next door
Perhaps a little more
He's every kid in every town
The world is full of lots of people
Here and there and all around
But people after all start out as being small
And we're all a boy named Charlie Brown
He's every kid in every town
Now those shadows of the morning
Have gone beyond the August afternoon
And Charlie's had his day, his very special day
His morning and his evening and his noon
Maybe it's the kind magic
That only little boys can do
But seeing Charlie smile
Can make you stop a while
And get you feeling glad you're you

He's only a boy named Charlie
A boy named Charlie Brown
He's just the kid next door
Perhaps a little more
He's every kid in every town
The world is full of lots of people
Here and there and all around
But people after all start out as being small
And we're all a boy named Charlie Brown
