Tunica Motel Lyrics

Tunica Motel lyrics

Monday looked like a downer
 Tuesday looked like rain
 A bad
altitude
 And I knew I needed a change

 Head out on the
highway
 Cruising way down south
 I knew a little place
 Where I
might could work it all out

 I'm so tired of fighting with myself
 Gonna spend a little time at the Tunica Motel

 Just outside of
Memphis,
 Highway 61
 Sleepy little town down by the

Mississippi River

 I'm gonna lay out on a houseboat
 Until my
hide turns brown
 Ain't gonna move 'till the
 Evening sun goes
down

 Fried chicken to go and they got live bait for sale

Anything you need at the Tunica Motel

 I find myself at midnight
 Moving to the back porch blues
 The guitar cries, telling me

About the hard times

 Something moves in the shadows
 Giving me
a little chill
 I thought I saw Robert Johnson
 Walking out across the
field

 There ain't hardly anybody left who even knows the tale

Gimme the blues at the Tunica Motel
