Lyrics
chorus
It looks like heartbreak hotel Reservation for one
please do not disturb, don't wanna see anyone
I need few days to figure out, where I went wrong
Just send up a bottle, my bag and guitar,
and don't bother me til Im done
I need to be alone so I made a reservation for one.
Well when I say to you baby that I was on a roll that's exactly what I mean
Everything I touched, it would turn to gold, and I always came out clean.
Lady luck was hanging all over me, and it was making everybody else sick
It was just my turn, but I had lessons to learn and let me tell you it can happen pretty quick
All the friends I trusted left as soon as I was busted, and one of them turned out to be a snitch
At first it made me mad, I lost everything I had, and lady luck turned out to be a bitch.
I liked easy come but easy go was not a bit of fun
and I wondered how much longer I could last
Looks like I better get the hell otta Dodge, and let me tell you it could happen pretty fast

When everything seems too good to be true, & it's all going your way;
