Good Time Charlie’s Got the Blues Songtext
von Waylon Jennings

Everybody′s gone away
Says they're movin′ to LA
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 wastin' mine


Some got to win, some got to lose
Good time Charlie′s got the blues

My whole heart keeps tellin' me
There ain′t no kid at thirty-three
Play around, you lose your wife
You play too long, you 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
