Lyrics

Cheer up Charley you ain't always been this big a mess
Sitting outside Slims daytime drinking feeling sorry for yourself
I've seen you with Lorna and you two walking down the street
You know she's heading straight down and doomed
Just got out of Coffee Creek
But I guess that's what you want too
So come on cheer up Charley
Cheer up Charley you know your wife she ain't coming back
I know she broke you and it breaks my heart to see you laid so flat
You're using 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 cheer up Charley
There ain't no end to going down
Cheer up Charley
