The Andrews Sisters

The Andrews Sisters were a highly successful close harmony singing group of the swing and boogie-woogie eras. The group consisted of three sisters: contralto LaVerne Sophia Andrews (July 6, 1911 – May 8, 1967), soprano Maxene Angelyn Andrews (January 3, 1916 – October 21, 1995), and mezzo-soprano Patricia Marie "Patty" Andrews (born February 16, 1918). Throughout their long career, the sisters sold well over 75 million records (the last official count released by MCA Records in the mid-1970s). Their 1941 hit "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" can be considered an early example of rhythm and blues or jump blues. more »

Charley is an ordinary fellow 
To most everyone but Flo, his Flo 
She's convinced that Charley 
Is a very extraordinary beau, some beau 
And everything in the dim light 
She has a way of putting him right.

Charley by boy, oh Charley my boy 
You thrill me, you kill me with shiver of joy
You've got the kind of, sort of, wonderful ways 
That makes me, takes me, tell me what shall I say? 

When we dance I read in your glance 
Whole pages and ages of love and romance 
They tell me that Romeo was some lover too 
But boy he should have taken lessons from you 
You seem to start where others get through 
Oh Charley, my boy. 

Charley, my boy, oh Charley, my boy 
You thrill me, you kill me with shiver of joy 
You've got the kind of, sort of, wonderful ways 
That makes me , takes me, tell me what shall I say? 

When we dance I read in your glance 
Whole pages and ages of love and romance 
They tell me that Romeo was some lover too 
But boy he should have taken lessons from you
You seem to start where others get through, 
Oh Charley, my boy. 

And when we dance, I read in your glance 
Just oodles and noodles of love and romance 
I have a millionarie proposing to me 
I think I'll marry him, though he's eighty-three 
Think what wealthy widow I'll be 
Oh Charley, my boy.
