D    D/C#  Bm       G        A      D  
I've got a girl and Charlene is her name 
D         D/C#        Bm                  G     A        D  
Since she flipped her skirt at me I ain't never been the same 
D   D/C#   Bm   G      A       D  
All of the boys in our trailer park 
      D      D/C#     Bm           G       A       D  
Would take a bath and go to school just to win her heart 
            G        A           D     D/C#     Bm 
Her name is Charlene Gene, she's every rednecks dream 
     G                A                 D    D7  
Some people think the thing that I love mo-o-ost  
       G        A   D       D/C#  Bm 
Is the way that she butters up my to-o-ast  
    G              A               D 
But most of most I love her lovely name    
Just the other day we were riding in my car 
We got to Charlene's trailer and I pulled up in the yard 
On her front porch was her old boyfriend Chase 
He blew a little kiss at her so I kicked him in the face 
Cause I love Charlene Gene, she's every redneck's dream 
Some people think the thing that I love most  
Is the way that she butters up my toast  
But most of most I love her lovely name    
Charlene's got a brother and his name is Jim 
And she's got one other and his names the same as him 
One of them is ugly and one of them is mean 
But both of them together couldn't keep me from Charlene   
  
Chorus 2 
 
Charlene's mom and daddy bought a brand new double wide  
And when she moved away from me I will admit I cried 
But that Friday night at the local quickie mart 
A pretty girl winked at me and nearly stole my heart 
 
  
Bobby Joe Briscoe the queen of the rodeo 
She may be sweet on me but she don't even know 
It don't matter how she butters up my bread 
I'll always love someone else instead   
 
Chorus 2
