Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, if you're ever in Austin, Texas A little run down on your sole I'm gonna tell you the name of an old man to see I'm gonna tell you right where to go He's working in Capitol Saddlery He's sewing in the back of the place He's old Charlie Dunn, the little frail one With the smile and the leathery face [Chorus] Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see Charlie done the boots that are on my feet It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see [Verse 2] Charlie's been makin' boots over there He says about fifty some odd years And once you wear a pair of his handmade boots You know, you'll never wear a store-bought pair Charlie can tell what's wrong with your feet Just by feelin' 'em with his hands And he can take a look at the boots you wear And know a whole lot about you, man [Chorus] Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see Charlie done the boots that are on my feet It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see [Bridge] Now ol' Buck's up front, countin' up his gold Charlie's in the back patchin' up the soles All the people comin' in smilin' at him They all wonder how's ol' Charlie been Ol' Buck's makin' change, he never ever sees no one He never understood the good thing Charlie done [Verse 3] Yeah, Ol' Charlie's never had his name on a sign He never put a mark in the boot He just hopes that you can remember him The same way that he does you He keeps your measurements in this little book So you can order more boots later on Well, I'm writin' down ol' Charlie's size 'Cause I'm a makin' him up a song [Chorus] Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see Charlie done the boots that are on my feet It makes Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see [Outro] Yeah, ol' Buck's makin' change, he never ever sees no one And he never understood a good thing Charlie done
