Room 205

I'm just four walls with a little paint, a picture here or there

I got a Bible in my dresser, just in case somebody cares

I've been here forever, 1959

My name is on the front door, they call me 205

And man you can't imagine, the things that happen here

I've seen my share of laughing and I've seen a lot of tears

Drug deals and last meals and love that seemed so real

Until I saw the flash of those hundred dollar bills

But let me tell you something crazy, that I'd never seen before

Starts with Johnny and Katie, first time they walked through my door

It was a Friday night, late fall

After a high school football game

They snuck away, in a beat up Chevrolet

Yeah they made love for the first time,

Till that Carolina sun came up

That's where it all began

At the Conway Motor Inn

Well they lit a cigarette, and talked about their lives

Said they were getting married, after graduation night

It all seemed so perfect, but they didn't have a clue

That one be one of them would be right back here with someone new

Now fast forward four years, and that white picket fence

It ain't holding out what it should be keeping in

See, I see Katie on the weekends, when Johnny's working nights

And the man she's coming here with, ain't the man I recognize

It was a Friday night, late fall

After a high school football game

They snuck away, in her lover's Escalade

Yeah they made love for the first time,

Till Johnny's graveyard shift was up

Both livin' in sin

At the Conway Motor Inn

Tonight Johnny ain't working, cause he's right here with me

With a pistol in his right hand, just waitin' on the key

To turn in my door, and when they both walk in

He lays that hammer down, and that's where this story ends

It was a Friday night, late fall

After a high school football game

They snuck away, in a beat up Chevrolet

Yeah they made love for the first time,

Till that Carolina sun came up

That's where it all began

And that's where it all ends

At the Conway Motor Inn

At the Conway Motor Inn

I've been here forever, 1959

My name is on the front door, they call me 205
