[00:03.56] .
[00:05.19] ..
[00:26.95] I'm just four walls with a little paint,
[00:30.76] a picture here or there
[00:33.83] I got a Bible in my dresser,
[00:37.02] just in case somebody cares
[00:40.89] I've been here forever, 1959
[00:47.33] My name is on the front door, they call me 205
[00:53.89] And man you can't imagine,
[00:56.83] the things that happen here
[01:00.45] I've seen my share of laughing
[01:03.39] and I've seen a lot of tears
[01:07.26] Drug deals and last meals
[01:10.26] and love that seemed so real
[01:13.51] Until I saw the flash of those hundred dollar bills
[01:19.70] But let me tell you something crazy,
[01:23.14] that I'd never seen before
[01:25.95] Starts with Johnny and Katie,
[01:29.39] first time they walked through my door
[01:32.14] .
[01:32.89] It was a Friday night, late fall
[01:36.39] After a high school football game
[01:40.96] They snuck away, in a beat up Chevrolet
[01:45.95] Yeah they made love for the first time,
[01:49.95] Till that Carolina sun came up
[01:54.33] That's where it all began
[01:57.58] At the Conway Motor Inn
[02:00.20] .
[02:06.77] Well they lit a cigarette,
[02:09.45] and talked about their lives
[02:12.58] Said they were getting married,
[02:15.77] after graduation night
[02:19.08] It all seemed so perfect,
[02:22.27] but they didn't have a clue
[02:25.58] That one be one of them would be right
[02:28.95] back here with someone new
[02:32.95] Now fast forward four years,
[02:35.76] and that white picket fence
[02:38.89] It ain't holding out
[02:41.57] what it should be keeping in
[02:44.83] See, I see Katie on the weekends,
[02:48.83] when Johnny's working nights
[02:51.83] And the man she's coming here with,
[02:54.83] ain't the man I recognize
[02:58.21] .
[02:58.45] It was a Friday night, late fall
[03:01.83] After a high school football game
[03:06.46] They snuck away, in her lover's Escalade
[03:11.71] Yeah they made love for the first time,
[03:15.33] Till Johnny's graveyard shift was up
[03:19.83] Both livin' in sin
[03:23.08] At the Conway Motor Inn
[03:25.52] .
[03:38.27] Tonight Johnny ain't working,
[03:41.33] cause he's right here with me
[03:44.51] With a pistol in his right hand,
[03:47.77] just waitin' on the key
[03:51.52] To turn in my door,
[03:54.39] and when they both walk in
[03:57.89] He lays that hammer down,
[04:01.21] and that's where this story ends
[04:04.58] .
[04:08.33] It was a Friday night, late fall
[04:11.71] After a high school football game
[04:16.45] They snuck away, in a beat up Chevrolet
[04:21.58] Yeah they made love for the first time,
[04:25.03] Till that Carolina sun came up
[04:29.79] That's where it all began
[04:33.03] And that's where it all ends
[04:36.66] At the Conway Motor Inn
[04:43.10] At the Conway Motor Inn
[04:45.35] .
[04:51.66] I've been here forever, 1959
[04:58.29] My name is on the front door,
[05:01.40] they call me 205
[05:03.97] .
