What’ll it be, Charlie? Would bourbon heal your heart Now that she done left you Now that you’re split apart What’ll it be, Charlie? How ‘bout a tonic and gin Now she’s out of the picture It was a game you couldn’t win They say a man can get over a heartbreak By meeting someone else right away So, Charlie have a drink on me Your time is now, don’t delay Don’t waste your time thinkin’ of her There’s plenty of trout in the river What’ll it be, Charlie? Let’s marinate that thirsty liver What’ll it be, Charlie? How ‘bout an ice cold beer Get back in the saddle, my friend Plenty of good women in here What’ll it be, Charlie? Don’t sit there and be down Cheer up, we’ve got your back Let’s get rid of that frown They say a man can get over a lost love By meeting someone else right away So, Charlie your drinks are on me You sure might find someone today Don’t waste your time thinkin’ of her There’s plenty of trout in the river What’ll it be, Charlie? Let’s marinate that thirsty liver What’ll it be, Charlie? Let’s marinate that thirsty liver February 6, 2021
