Have you met my good friend Charley?
Oh, you've heard of him, no doubt
Well, he's a great big good ten Charley
That the girls all rave about
He's as welcome at a party
As flowers are in spring
Anytime you see him coming
Everyone begins to sing
Clap hands, here comes Charley
Clap hands, good ten Charley
Clap hands, here comes Charley now
This way. Join the party
This way. Meet my cutty
Hey, hey. Charley, take a bow
See the smiles go around the table
Grab a chair
Move it over there
Let him sit right next to me bowl
I say
Clap hands, here comes Charley
Clap hands, good ten Charley
Clap hands, here comes Charley now
You can tell that he's a buyer
Charley pays—we all get higher
Oh, clap hands, there's tacky
Clap hands, they'll be lucky
Clap hands, here's Charley now
Oh, oh, oh
The customers and waitress know
Here's Charley. Let's go!
Clap hands, 'cause here comes Charley now, now
