Charlie and Fred Lyrics & Tabs by The Hollies
Charlie and Fred
guitar chords lyrics
He rides on his horse and cart, Charlie does
Working from six until nine
Collecting old rags and used bicycles
Old iron of description of any kind
Here comes Charlie, Charlie the Ragman
Throw out your old clothes for Charlie and Fred
Earning a living off things we've discarded
Earning enough for the board and the bed
You hear him shout "rags and old iron."
Everyone knows him that way
Once a week, they come 'round calling
How long it's been, I can't say
Here comes Charlie, Charlie the Ragman
Throw out your old clothes for Charlie and Fred
Earning a living off things we've discarded
Here comes Charlie, Charlie the Ragman
Throw out your old clothes for Charlie and Fred
Earning a living off things we've discarded
Earning enough for the board and the bed
They live all alone in a hovel
He puts his money away
Taking enough to just live on
And at the end of the day
He's saving enough
To put Fred out to graze
They live all alone in a hovel
He puts his money away
Taking enough to just live on
And at the end of the day
He's saving enough
To put Fred out to graze
Has anyone seen Charlie lately?
Charlie just ain't been around
Everyone's seen Fred is grazing
Chewing the grass from the ground
Children say Charlie is happy
Giving balloons to the angels instead
Where is Charlie, Charlie the Ragman?
Don't throw your clothes out
