Dwight Yoakam - Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues lyrics

(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

Said find the sunshine leave the rain

They say 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

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
