Lorrie Morgan - Charlie and Betty lyrics

rate me

Betty walked in with a red dress on

Charlie's first glance, he was fallin' in love

He didn't have to say what he felt that day

So Charlie promised Betty she had his heart

And Betty promised Charlie they'd never

Part till their dyin' day

Well, it didn't take long for the winds to change

Charlie's busy workin', Betty's home each day

And Charlie never knew 'bout Betty feelin' blue

So Charlie promised Betty she had his heart

And Betty promised Charlie they'd never

Part till their dyin' day

For so long things have been so wrong

Charlie always thought that he'd always be true

But he didn't know what a broken heart could do

Till Betty walked in with her blue dress on

At Charlie's first glance, he knew she was gone

She didn't have to say why she left that day

But Betty promised Charlie he had her heart

And Charlie promised Betty they'd never

Part till his dyin' day

Betty walked up with her black dress on

We all wondered if she would come and

What she'd have to say

Charlie's restin' place

But Betty had it written on Charlie's grave

"You had my heart till your dyin' day"

That's what I came to say
