The miles roll by and your back is wet And the shadows grow so long It seems a million miles And a long long while Since you turned that motor on The three-piece suit On the back seat rack Gettin' shiny from bein' used Maybe tonight at the motor hotel There'll be a stewardess and a glass of booze A lady who don't sing the blues
Your eyeballs twitch and your back is stiff And your leg is in the land of dreams The order book has an empty look You feel a little worn around the seams The padded dashboard radio Crackles the nowhere news Maybe tonight at the motor hotel There'll be a stewardess and a glass of booze A lady who don't sing the blues
Everbody has ambition Everybody has a deram But everybody don't get to be kings and queens That seems to be the way it seems You get a sample case And an order book And a smile for when you feel abused Maybe tonight at the motor hotel There'll be a stewardess and a glass of booze A lady who don't sing the blues
