Chris Hillman Good Time Charlie's By Danny O'keefe

Got the Blues

Everybody's gone away

I Believe this time they're gonna stay

There not a soul I know around

Everybody's leaving town

Some caught a freight some caught a plane

Find the sunshine leave the rain

They say this town'll waste your 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 telling me^¿

You're not a kid at thirty-three

Play around you lose your wife

Play too long you lose your life

I've got my pills to ease the pain

Can't found a thing to ease the rain

I'd love to try and settle down

But everybody's leaving town

Some gotta win Some gotta lose

Good time Charlie's got the blues

Everybody's gone away

I Believe this time they're gonna stay

There not a soul I know around

Everybody's leaving town
