From an email request:
Hi, Joe,

I am new to your site, which I learned about today via ChatGPT. Can you please help me?

I am trying to find a song that my grandmother sang to me (she was born in 1900 and married in 1919).

Attached, please find a pdf of the lyrics, as well as a rough recording of me trying to sing it.

Thank you in advance for any help that you can give me.

Can anybody find more information about this song:

I know a little man;
I do not know his name.
He stands around the corner every night.
He wears a golden watch and chain;
a silver walking cane;
                  a penny rose is tucked in his lapel.
Goodnight, Charlie, glad to see you.
One more kiss before I go.
We will meet on a Sunday night.
We will have a little fight.
Goodbye, Charlie, glad to see you.
