Everybody’s gone away
Said they’re movin’ to L.A.
There’s not a soul I know around
Everybody’s leavin’ town!
Some caught a freight. Some caught a plane
Find the sunshine, Leave the rain?
They said this town’s a waste time
I guess they’re right, it’s wasting mine.
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good time Charlie’s got the blues.
You know my heart keeps tellin’ me
You?re not a kid at thirty-three
You play around you’ll lose your wife
You play too long you’ll lose your life.
I?ve got my pills to ease the pain
Can?t find a friend to ease the rain
I know I should try and settle down
Everybody?s leaving town.
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good time Charlie’s got the blues.
Good time Charlie’s got the blues…
