Everybody's gone away said they're moving 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

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
