Good Time Charlie’s Got the Blues

Everybody's goin' away
Said they're movin' to LA
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'll waste your time
I guess they're right it's wastin' mine

Some gotta win some gotta lose
Good time Charlie's got the blues
Good time Charlie's got the blues

You know my heart keeps telling me
You're not a kid at forty-three
You play around you lose your wife
You play too long you lose your life

I'm hopin' time will ease the pain
Can't find a thing to ease the rain
I'd love to try and settle down
But everybody's leavin' town

Some gotta win some gotta lose
Good time Charlie's got the blues
Good time Charlie's got the blues
