Cheer up, Charley You ain't always been this big a mess Sittin' outside the slims Daytime drinkin' and feelin' sorry for yourself I've seen you and Lorna And you two walkin' down the street You know she's headed straight down And doom just got out of coffee creek But I guess that's what you want too So come on, come on, come on Cheer up, Charley Cheer up, Charley You know your wife, she ain't comin' back And I know she broke you and it breaks my heart To see you laid so flat You're usin' up all your vacation days If you lose your job on the docks It's a job you'll never get back So come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, cheer up Cheer up, Charley Cheer up, Charley There ain't no end to going down There ain't no end to going down There ain't no end Cheer up, Charley Cheer up, Charley Cheer up, Charley
