Intro verse 1 N.C. 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 Chorus N.C. Some gotta win, some gotta lose Good time Charlie's got the blues verse 2 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. Chorus N.C. Some gotta win, some gotta lose Good time Charlie's got the blues Good time Charlie's got the blues
