This song is for you big motel on the mountain
Just in thought to pass the time
And for the people who had loved and some have been loved
And some were wanted inside your walls
And for the 22 year old college girl
Who made that last semester with her smile along your halls
And for the trav'ling salesman
And the Friday night time dinner out time crowd
Some were seeking stimulation
In the laugh or noise and brings the music loud
This song is for you big motel on the mountain
Just in thought to pass the time.
--- Instrumental ---
And for the Wednesday night or Saturday
That meet inside you banquet room at nine
For the women's club and the social leads
And the regular attendants every time
For the lost depended child
By your northside entrance left alone to die
For the long haired wide eyed boy
Selling dope and looking for a place to hide
This song is for you big motel on the mountain
Just in thought to pass the time.
--- Instrumental ---
For the middle aged exaltiver
Who thought he'd seen enough to slash his wrist in No 10
And for the thirty-two year old housewife
Who got caught with the best friend's husband she ain't around to try again
For the seven year old girl
Swinging slight on the westside near the pool
Saying why couldn't dad come home with us mama
Why you got to put me in that school
This song is for you big motel on the mountain
Just in thought to pass the time...
