Good Time Charlie S Got The Blues - Danny O Keefe

Everybody's gone away

I believe this time they're gone to stay

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

I guess they're right it's wasting mine

Some gotta win some gotta lose

Good time Charlie's got the blues

You know my heart keeps tellin' me

You're not a kid at thirty-three

You play around you'll lose your wife

You play too long you'll 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 leaving town

Some gotta win some gotta lose

Good time Charlie's got the blues
