Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues
(Words/music by Danny O'Keefe)
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 will waste your time
Guess they're right ---- it's wasting mine
Chorus:
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Instrumental
Y'know my heart keeps tellin' me
You're not a kid at 33
Y'play around y'lose your wife,
Y'play too long, you lose your life
Got my pills t'ease the pain,
Can't find a thing to stop the rain
I'd love t'try and settle down,
But everybody's leavin' town
Chorus:
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Got the blues, got the blues
Got the blues, got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Got the blues, got the blues
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 will waste your time
Guess they're right ---- it's wasting mine
Chorus:
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Instrumental
Y'know my heart keeps tellin' me
You're not a kid at 33
Y'play around y'lose your wife,
Y'play too long, you lose your life
Got my pills t'ease the pain,
Can't find a thing to stop the rain
I'd love t'try and settle down,
But everybody's leavin' town
Chorus:
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Got the blues, got the blues
Got the blues, got the blues
Good Time Charlie's got the blues
Got the blues, got the blues
