Lyrics

[Verse 1] Everybody's goin' away Believe they're gone this time to stay There's not a soul I know around Everybody's leavin' town [Verse 2] Some caught a freight, some caught a plane Find the sunshine, leave the rain They said this town's a waste of time I guess they're right, it's wastin' mine [Chorus] Some got to win, some gotta lose Good time Charley's got the blues Good time Charley's got the blues [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] You know my heart keep 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 [Verse 4] I walk the streets to ease the pain Won't do a thing to ease the rain I'd love to try and settle down But everybody's leavin' town [Chorus] Some got to win, some gotta lose Good time Charley's got the blues Good time Charley's got the blues Good time Charley's got the blues
