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 will 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 tellin' me
You're not a kid at thirty-three
Play around you'll lose your wife
You play 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
