Hangdog Hotel Room (1988 Version)

[Verse 1]
I go in for singing
I do it for my pay
The kind of gig I can really dig
Happens just at the break of day
With a few good friends and neighbors
Into playin' the nighttime tunes
So pass the jar and that old guitar
In this hangdog hotel room

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, it feels so good
To play a nighttime tune
So pass the jar and that old guitar
In this hangdog hotel room

[Verse 2]
I believe in magic
A little monkeyshines
The kind of row I can really hoe
Is playin' in tune on time
With rhythms all around us
We're like weavers at the loom
So pass the jar and that old guitar
In this hangdog hotel room

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, it feels so good
To play a nighttime tune
So pass the jar and that old guitar
In this hangdog hotel room

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
When it comes to morning
And goin' out at night
The kind of test I like the best
Is treating the wrong girl right
With a few good friends and neighbors
Into playin' the nighttime tunes
So pass the jar and that old guitar
In this hangdog hotel room

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, it feels so good
To play a nighttime tune
So pass the jar and that old guitar
In this hangdog hotel room
With rhythms all around us
We're like weavers at the loom
So pass the jar and that old guitar
In this hangdog hotel room
