Roach Motel

(album: Bootheel 2020 - 2020)

She said, "Don't say a word
Just keep it to yourself
Nobody's gonna know
I ain't that easily impressed
I borrowed a truck
I'll park it around back
Got a hundred dollar bill
Nothing they can track"

"It's a roach motel
We don't need a lot of time
Just lie on your back
And enjoy the ride"

She said, "I was thirteen
Barely out of seventh grade
And that summer, every boy
Kept coming 'round my way
I've been in your shoes
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Ain't nothing you can do
That I ain't ever felt or seen"

"It's a roach motel
We don't need a lot of time
Just lie on your back
And enjoy the ride"

"Guess now I find comfort in being in control
And always knowing I'm a memory
You ain't the first, and you won't be the last
To be with me
So, boy, please be with me"

"It's a roach motel
We don't need a lot of time
Just lie on your back
And enjoy the ride"
