Written and originally recorded by Danny O'Keefe in 1967
Recorded by Elvis in 1973 and released in 1974 as the 5th track, side two of his album "Good Times"
Everybody's gone away
Said they're moving to L.A.
There's not a soul I know around
Everybody's leaving town
Some caught a freight, some caught a plane
Found the sunshine in the rain
They said this town will waste their time
I guess they're right, it's wasting mine
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good time Charlie's got the blues
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'll lose your wife
You play too long, you'll lose your life
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good time Charlie's got the blues
Good time Charlie's got the blues
Good time Charlie's got the blues
