作词 : Hancock | |
I was standin at a big hotel | |
wishin everybody well | |
but if anybody paid me any mind it was hard to tell | |
a big policeman on his beat | |
pulled his pistol and he pointed at me | |
lookin down the barrel I could see the gates of hell | |
I was Standin' At A Big Hotel | |
so i went walkin down the avenue | |
lookin for someone who looked like you | |
but I never saw a face that seemed to ring a bell | |
so I stopped beside the five and dime | |
just window-shoppin and wastin time | |
when along came a gal who sold me all she had to sell | |
she left me Standin' At A Big Hotel | |
I lost my mind in the wilds of Hollywood | |
I did some time in the shadows where I stood | |
I let the cards fall where they fell... | |
and I found myself Standin' At A Big Hotel | |
a blind lady with a big tin cup | |
had her pencils all sharpened up | |
she was standin in the door just to see what she could sell | |
but nobody bought a thing all night | |
they thought she was a pitiful sight | |
Lord help the gal who helps herself | |
Standin' At A Big Hotel | |
long gone are horse n buggy days | |
big limousines are here to stay | |
and when they see you to the door | |
they want something for their help | |
but I saw somebody make a little slip | |
he only left the kid a ten cent tip | |
you shoulda heard what I heard when I heard that bell boy yell... | |
Standin' At A Big Hotel | |
Lord Lord what's the matter with me | |
to pay so much for the song I sing | |
when all I was doin was singin it to myself | |
like standin in a stagnant stream | |
with nothin in the world left to dream | |
I was dyin at the bottom of a dried up wishin well | |
I was Standin' At A Big Hotel | |
well I know what you're thinkin today | |
I can feel it though I'm miles away | |
everybody knows I love my southern belle | |
but from the east to the wild wild west | |
they say a bird in the hand is best | |
so here I am with a bird dog and a bottle of muscatel | |
