Spokane Motel Blues

Tom T Hall

I don't know what I'm doing here, I could be someplace else Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine, wine I don't know what I'm doing here, I should be someplace else Like in Kentucky drinkin shine, shine, shine The dogs are running down in Memphis And them nags are running in L.A. yeah I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room And there ain't no way to get away Willie Nelson's picking out in Austin And Waylon's hanging out in Mexico I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room And Kris is making moving picture shows Hey, I don't know what I'm doing here, I could be someplace else Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine, wine I don't know what I'm doing here, I should be someplace else Like in Kentucky drinkin' shine, shine, shine Well I know they're dancing in New Orleans And old Chicago's bright as day I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room Lord, I wish I had a Dolly Parton tape Well Hill and Bare and Billy Joe they're gambling And ol TP's frying croppie all night long They're down at Tootsie's eating chili I'm stuck in Spokane a writing songs Hey, I don't know what I'm doing here, I could be someplace else Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine, wine I don't know what I'm doing here, I should be someplace else Like in Kentucky drinkin' clear moonshine
