Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues

Everybody's gone away

I believe this time they're gonna stay

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

You know my heart keeps tellin' me

You're not a kid at forty-three

You play around, you lose your wife

Play too long, you lose your life

Got my pills to ease the pain

Can't find a thing to help 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
