Lyric 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
Found the sunshine in the rain
They said this town s will waste their time
I guess they re right, it s wasting 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 tellin me
You re not a kid at thirty-three
Play around you ll lose your wife
You play it too long you ll lose your life

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

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
