Charlene - please take care little sister of mine
Better stay off the drugs and the wine
Don't get lost in that dangerous scene
My sister Charlene
Stay out Charlene
Just beware of the dark side of town
That's where passion and sex tear you down
Where the people are greedy and mean
You'd better stay out Charlene
Charlene
Charlene

I saw you last night
In your fancy outfit
Eying the men in the dark streets
They touched your gorgeous body
With their greedy eyes
You've gotta believe
You're far too young and beautiful
Follow your heart but don't go too far

You've after for sensations
That will take you some place else
Beyond the frontiers of normality
But the evil is waiting out there
So please take care of yourself
Don't give away everything you own
Cos no-one will give you back
The innocence that you've lost
