Lyrics : Mack
Music : Johnson
Please don't talk about me when I'm gone
Oh honey, though our friendship ceases from now on
And listen, if you can't say anything real nice
It's better not to talk at all, is my advice
We're parting, you go your way, I'll go mine
It's best that we do
Here's a kiss I hope that this brings lots of luck to you
Makes no difference how I carry on
Remember, please don't talk about me when I'm gone
Charleston! Charleston! Made in Carolina
Some dance, some prance, I'll say, there's nothing finer
Than the Charleston, Charleston. Lord, how you can shuffle
Ev'ry step you do leads to something new
Man, I'm telling you it's a lapazoo
Buck dance, wing dance, will be a back number
But the Charleston, the new Charleston, that dance is surely a comer
Sometime you'll dance it one time
The dance called the Charleston
Made in South Caroline
