Everybody's gone away
Said they're moving 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'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 thirty-three
You play around, you lose your wife
You play too long, you lose your life I got my pills to 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
