There's a little girl in our neighborhood
Her name is Charlotte Johnson and she's really lookin' good
I had to go and see her, so I called her on the phone
I walked over to her house, and this was goin' on

Her brother was on the sofa, eatin' chocolate pie
Her momma was in the kitchen cuttin' chicken up to fryHer daddy was in the back yard rollin' up a garden hoseI was on the porch with Charlotte feelin' love down to my toes

And we were swingin'
We were swingin'
Little Charlotte, she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch swingJust a swingin'
Just a swingin'

Swing it now!

Now Charlotte, she's a darlin', she's the apple of my eyeWhen I'm on the swing with her, well it makes me almost high
Now Charlotte is my lover and she has been since the spring
I can't believe it started on her front porch in the swing

And we were swingin'
We were swingin'
Little Charlotte, she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch swingJust a swingin'
Just a swingin'

Saxophone solo intensifies

There's a little girl in our neighborhood
Her name is Charlotte Johnson and she's really lookin' good
I had to go and see her, so I called her on the phone
I walked over to her house, and this was goin' on

Her brother was on the sofa, eatin' chocolate pie
Her momma was in the kitchen cuttin' chicken up to fryHer daddy was in the back yard rollin' up a garden hoseI was on the porch with Charlotte feelin' love down to my toes

And we were swingin'
We were swingin'
Little Charlotte, she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch swingJust a swingin'
Just a swingin'

Yeah we were swingin'
Swingin'Swingin'
Yeah we were swingin'
