There's not a soul I know around Everybody's leaving town Some caught a freight, some caught a plane Found the sunshine in the rain They said this town 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 telling 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 |
