Spokane Motel Blues Lyrics - Tom T. Hall

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, '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, 'shine, '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
