Lyrics
VERSE1
He was a salesman, had a company car
Covered all of New Mexicao
He could make a cold call on the Devil himself
Knew every little rule of the road
But it's a downer, when you're an out-of-towner
Spending every night all alone
On the evening in question he was in his room restin'
At the Albuquerque green and gold
CHORUS
He was stayin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Sleepin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Never had a hes'r'tation when he made his res'r'vation no suprisin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
He was staying at he Hol'r'day Inn
Eatin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Even took a down and outer though the traffic it was louder
It was safer at the Hol'r'day Inn
VERSE2
She was a brave little honey, save her money
she was taking a trip on her own
But she'd heard a lot of stories from her girlfriend Lorie 'bout the travelin' men she had known
So she took a can of mace, when she checked into the place
She had guaranteed a month ago
She was feelin' a little nervous, called room service
Afraid to venture out in the cold
CHORUS2
She was stayin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Sleepin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Never had a hes'r'tation when she made his res'r'vation no suprisin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
She was staying at he Hol'r'day Inn
Eatin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Even took a down and outer though the traffic it was louder
It was safer at the Hol'r'day Inn
HARMONICA SOLO
VERSE3
Well, you never of figured, the way things were
The two of them would ever meet
But room one-oh-two and room one-oh-three
Had that little door there in between
She got up to get a drink, could find the sink
Then she opened up the wrong dang door, ha!
When she quit yellin', he commenced to sellin'
Ain't no need in tellin' you more
CHORUS3
They are stayin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Sleepin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Never had a hes'r'tation when they make their res'r'vation no suprisin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
They are staying at he Hol'r'day Inn
Eatin' at the Hol'r'day Inn
Even take a down and outer though the traffic it is louder
It is safer at the Hol'r'day Inn
HARMONICA SOLO
TAG
Wait a minute...
Always stay at the Hol'r'day Inn
