Lyra, Queen of the Starlite Motel
my better days have come and gone
about as bad as they come,
So I drink, and get high,
cussin at the clear blue sky,
tall drink o'water, standin by the motel sign
hey there mister, so nice to see ya,
I heard you broken the law,
Now we can't be too loud and you
better be quick now, just because
I got a line down the hall,
you're pushin me against the wall
She say, your time is up,
Get your skinny ass on the floor!
So if you see me tonight,
they've caught a man on the run
He'll do whatever you want,
give you whatever you need
Long as you throw me a line,
fill me your vacancy please!
Now that sweet old dixie line,
how many times have I known
You see she used to carry me all the way
across the great state of Tennessee
Until the very day she just
So I crawl, I drive late December
Well Well the interstate was murder,
And I was lookin for a place to die,
hi there sweetheart, since you've come so far,
why don't you stay here for awhile?
Now I don't bite none and I'll fix you up hun,
I'll bet you heard me through the radio dial.
I never mean to let you down
I'm bout to climb upstairs,
hop into bed just to show you I ain't messin around
So if you see me tonight,
they've caught a man on the run
He'll do whatever you want,
give you whatever you need
Long as you throw me a line,
fill me your vacancy please!
