[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] |
. |
