Lyrics:
the sign to warn the cleanup maid
Yeah there's lots of soap end there's lots of towels
never mind them desk clerk's scowls
I buy you breakfast, they'll
To the lapel of my dress
I swallow this is it
The door to the left of the
Clerk's temporary desk is open
I can feel the bodies of
The other families behind us
Hungover in a hotel room
Cell phone's dead
You're stretched out next to me
Lost somewhere in a dark whiskey dream
Hungover in a hotel room
Call
you're bein' mislead
Boogie Motel, Boogie Motel
May be sleazy, but it's cheap and it's easy
Between heaven and hell, check in to the Boogie Motel
Desk
town
Well, the picture in the paper showed the scene real well
Papa's rig was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
town
Well, the picture in the paper showed the scene real well
Papa's rig was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
police
uniforms with Trooper Richards between them. Behind them were Dan Kelly and Steve
Byrne, both on horseback. The gang entered the Royal Mail Hotel
your friends at the front desk
Any hour at the front desk
Call up your friends at the grand hotel
You'll always have friends at the grand hotel
he could up with it for a little while
He was workin' on something big
Speed ball rang the night desk
Said "send me up a drink"
The night
Hotel
Front-desk lady smiles at me
"Sorry Sir, can't find your name
Could we see your confirmation? No?
Well, well that's a shame
'Cause I can't find your
and headed into town
Well, the picture in the paper showed the scene real well
Papa's rig was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all
at the gate
In the same dress you wore the night I met you
We raced past the desk clerk
She looked up from her bookwork and she smiled
Rdu and here we are
a motel clerk in Jersey
Who has not met me
So why am I in this
Hotel in Memphis
When I just want to kiss
Somebody tonight
My mother doesn't
tonight
I know the hotel clerk, he lied
I followed her from the west side
In Sioux City
Please don't bring to life
This dark and dingy room
Sioux City
Here
of feathers. Think about it)
Arrived at the hotel, was greeted by the clerk
I'm on a business trip because I travel when I work
I didn't ask for much, I'd had
Seven days of shorthand in a secretarial pool
Now desk clerks and bell hops now know her by her face
And the folks of Tampa know her by her mama's
tonight
I know the hotel clerk, he lied
I followed her from the west side
in Sioux City
please don't bring to life
this dark and dingy room
Sioux City
here
even my folks
For the means to go on
Wondering if I lose my nerve
Or answer the phone
When the desk clerk calls to say
A stranger's on his way
Up
but clinging
to his vision of her
as the red lipped stranger.
Downstairs
the desk clerk's cat
slithers through
the service entrance.
the clerk
Told her to put in that work,
But when pull up, it is time to just pull up dat skirt
She tried to unbutton my shirt
I'm fucking that bitch
the cleanup maid
There's lots of soap and lots of towels
Never mind those desk clerk's scowls
I'll buy you breakfast, they'll think you're my wife
Come up to my
and disguise
High up there at his desk in his robe and his wig
Sits the honorable Judge Marionette
And everyone's guilty in his kangaroo court
So go see
work
Boy i keep the church's chicken
I'm gon' clock right through the clerk ya
Boy my money talk like it's got a mouth
Better stay down in yo' south
while the desk top lags
Junky like a junky, man so funky put the claps in the pocket like a thief when he (knock shit)
I live the Hotel Life
I live
