Come up to my motel room, treat me nice.
I don't want to make no late night New York calls,
I don't want to stare at those ugly grass matte walls,
Chronologically I know you're young,
But when you kissed me in the club you bit my tongue,
I'll put a song for you and put it on my next LP,
Come up to my motel room, sleep with me.
There's a bible in the drawer don't be afraid,
I'll put up a sign to warn the clean up maid,
There's lots of soap and lots of towels,
Never mind those desk clerk scowls,
I'll buy you breakfast, they'll think you're my wife,
Come up to my motel room, save my life.
