Everybody's gone away   Since they're movin' to L.A.   There ain't a soul I know around   Everybody's leavin' town      Some caught a freight, some caught a plane   Find the sunshine leave the rain   They say this town'll waste your mind   Must be right 'cause it's wasted mine      Some got to win, some got to lose   Good time Charlie's got the blues      My old heart keeps telling me   There ain't no kid at thirty-three   Play around and lose your wife   You play too long and lose your life      I got my pills to ease the pain   Can't find a thing to ease the rain   Sometimes I'd like to try and settle down   But everybody's leavin' town      Some got to win, some got to lose   Good time Charlie's got the blues
