Goodtime Charlie`s Got the Blues
By Charlie Rich
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.
Find the sunshine, Leave the rain?
They said this town`s a waste 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?ve got my pills to ease the pain,
Can?t find a friend to ease the rain.
I know I should try and settle down.
Everybody?s leaving town.
Some gotta win! Some gotta lose!
Good time Charlie`s got the blues!
Good time Charlie`s got the blues!
