spokane motel blues

i don't know what i'm doing here

i could be someplace else

like in atlanta drinkin' wine

wine

i don't know what i'm doing here

i should be someplace else

like in kentucky drinkin' 'shine

'shine

the dogs are running down in memphis

and them nags are running in la

i'm stuck in spokane in a motel room

and there ain't no way to get away

willie nelson's picking out in austin

and waylon's hanging out in mexico

i'm stuck in spokane in a motel room

and kris is making movin' picture shows

hey

i don't know what i'm doing here

i could be someplace else

like in atlanta drinkin' wine

wine

wine

i don't know what i'm doing here

i should be someplace else

like in kentucky drinkin' 'shine

well i know they're dancing in new orleans

and old chicago's bright as day

i'm stuck in spokane in a motel room

lord

i wish i had a dolly parton tape

well hill and bare and billy joe they're gambling

and ol' tp's frying croppie all night long

they're down at tootsie's eating chili

i'm stuck in spokane a-writing songs

hey

i don't know what i'm doing here

i could be someplace else

like in atlanta drinkin' wine

wine

wine

i don't know what i'm doing here

i should be someplace else

like in kentucky drinkin' clear moonshine
