Just a Swingin'

My Dad Used to Sing me a Song when I was growing up, and still often pulls out the chorus, or a verse and sings it to me when It applies.  

Just a Swingin' by John Anderson 

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.
Momma was in the kitchen, cuttin' chicken up to fry.
Daddy was in the backyard, rollin' up a garden hose.
I was on the porch with Charlotte, feelin' love down to my toes.
and we were swingin' (swingin')
yes we were swingin' (swingin')

Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on her front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')

Yeah, and we'll be swingin'. (swingin')
Yes, we'll be swingin'. (swingin')
Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on her front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')

Now Charlotte she's a darlin', she's the apple of my eye.
When I'm on the swing with her, it makes me almost high.
And Charlotte is my lover, and she has been since the spring.
I just can't believe it started on her front porch in this swing.
Just a swingin'. (swingin')
ah-just a swingin'. (swingin')

Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on her front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')

I said Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on her front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin') (swingin')

I took this picture of Nick & Kinley yesterday, while Nick was swinging withher on the old tire swing at his parents house. All I can think of when I see this picture is the song that my Dad sings.  Maybe one Day Nick will learn it, and sing it to Kinley, and if he doesn't, I am sure she will hear it from her Grandpa! :)
