Charlie Lyrics


Don't look back 'cos familiar will kill ya
I've seen it happen too many times too many times too many timesLife begins at a run down railway station
The 10: 15 on the London line, the London line, the London lineJust take a look at Charlie
Carries a dream for all of us
Flying the flag for northerners
Council estate to HollywoodJust take a look at Charlie
Like Steve McQueen he took the jump
Look at him go that could be us
Have to admit the boy done good
Just like his mother said he would
Like she said he would
Don't think twice, go and find your future
You know that fortune favours the brave, favours the brave, favours the braveFind your way cos no one will find it for youAnother summer it came and went it came and went it came and wentJust take a look at Charlie
Like Steve McQueen he took the jump
Look at him go that could be us
Have to admit the boy done good
Just like his mother said he would
Like she said he wouldFix your grip, don't let it slip

Gotta fight for this, this is it
Just take a look at Charlie
Like Steve McQueen he took the jump
Look at him go that could be us
Have to admit the boy done good
Just like his mother said he would
Like she said he would

Skinny Lister are not your average, modern day, gentrified English folk group. Fronted by Dan Heptinstall and Lorna Thomas; a vocalist with a lusty cackle and flirtatious presence, the London based five-piece hail from across England. Borrowing the nickname from the Lister family, pioneers in the use of anesthetic, the band have grown naturally and organically over the past two years. Yorkshire born songwriter Heptinstall, Lorna’s older brother Max, and long-time shanty singer Sam ‘Mule’ Brace, met some time ago at a folk club in London’s Greenwich area.
