Charlie Chaplin (englisch) Songtext

von Peter, Sue & Marc

From London Town to Beverly Hills
All people love you stil,
Oh Charly, Charly Chaplin.
And though you'll come back never again
You'll stay a good old friend,
Oh Charly, Charly Chaplin.

We'll be laughing and having fun with you
In your own special way.
And our laughing will teach us gently
There's something you can tell us
That worse just couldn't say.

[Refrain]
Oh Charly, oh Charly Chaplin
Silent movies will live forever.
Oh Charly, oh Charly Chaplin
And your song will never die.
Oh Charly, oh Charly Chaplin
Tears and laughter belong together.
Oh Charly, oh Charly Chaplin
Tell the world the reason why.

Bowlerhat, moustache and stick
That's how you got the klick,
Oh Charly, Charly Chaplin.
Little Tramp in walking shoes,
You never got the blues,
Oh Charly, Charly Chaplin.

Nor the light, light will no more shine on you,
No more modern times to bare.
Big dictators will lay a curse on you,
Knwowing they could never bend
The spirit that we share.

[Refrain]

Oh Charly, oh Charly Chaplin
Tears and laughter belong together.
Oh Charly, oh Charly Chaplin
Tell the world the reason why,
Tell the world the reason why.
