Don¡¯t want to die in a Super 8 Motel
|
Just because somebody¡¯s evening didn¡¯t go so well
|
If I ever get back to Bristol
|
I¡¯m better off sleeping in a county jail
|
Don¡¯t want to die in a super 8 Motel
|
|
Having such a sweet night
|
Audience is just right
|
Drinking like a pirate do
|
Don¡¯t want to sleep yet
|
Buddy it¡¯s a good bet
|
I¡¯ll raise more hell than you
|
Do a couple rails
|
And chase your own tail
|
And talk about the bad old days
|
Trimmer in a t-shirt
|
Telling me her heart hurt
|
Honey let me count the ways
|
Then a big boy busted in
|
Screaming at his girlfriend
|
Waving around a Fungo bat
|
Bass player stepping up
|
Brandishing a coffee cup
|
Took it in the baby fat
|
|
I don¡¯t want to die in a Super 8 Motel
|
Just because somebody¡¯s evening didn¡¯t go so well
|
If I ever get back to Bristol
|
I¡¯m better off sleeping in a county jail
|
I don¡¯t want to die in a Super 8 Motel
|
|
Well I finally got the room clear
|
Bleeding from the left ear
|
Feeling pretty bad for the maid
|
Lost a couple drinks and my dinners in a sink
|
Woke up with the bed still made
|
Wasn¡¯t quite morning and I wasn¡¯t quite breathing
|
My heart way up in my throat
|
The Girl starts screaming and the maid starts screaming
|
And it looks like it¡¯s all she wrote
|
Well they slapped me back to life
|
And they telephoned my wife
|
And they filled me full of Pedialyte
|
Some are guts some are glory
|
And it would make a great story
|
If I ever could remember it right
|
|
I don¡¯t want to die in a Super 8 Motel
|
Just because somebody¡¯s evening didn¡¯t go so well
|
If I ever get back to Bristol
|
I'm better off sleeping in a county jail
|
I don¡¯t want to die in a Super 8 Motel
|
I don¡¯t want to die in a Super 8 Motel
