Good Time Charlie s Got the Blues:Big John Khatt
And The Highland Blues Band.
Recorded live in Metz, France(with permission)in 1973.
INTRO: (x3)
#1.
Everybody s gone away..said they re
moving to LA.
There ain t a soul, I know, around..
everybody s leaving town.
#2.
Some caught a freight, some took a plane..
lie in the sunshine, leave the rain.
They say this town ll waste your time..
I guess they re right, it s wasting mine.
CHORUS:
Some gotta win..some gotta lose.
Good time Charlie s got the blues.
Good time Charlie s got the blues.
(INTERLUDE:)
#3.
You know my heart keeps telling me..
you re not a kid at thirty-three.
Play around you lose your wife..
you play too long you lose your life.
CHORUS:
Some gotta win..some gotta lose.
Good time Charlie s got the blues.
Good time Charlie s got the blues.
(INTERLUDE:)
#4.
I ve got my pills to ease the pain..
ain t found nothing to ease the rain.
Someday I d like to settle down..
but everybody s leaving town.
CHORUS:
Some gotta win..some gotta lose.
Good time Charlie s got the blues.
Good time Charlie s got the blues.
OUTRO:
Good time Charlie s got the blues.....(x3)(Fade.)
