motel whore Lyrics
Room 147
Just for the night
Said I was heaven
Left without saying goodbye
Am I just a secret
You love to hide?
Turn off your location when
You come over late at night
[Pe-Chorus]
Check in, check out
One night stay, you're out the door
You treat me like a
Motel whore
[Chorus]
Tell me I'm more
Tell me I'm more
I promise I'm more
More than your goddamn motel whore
[Verse 2]
Why can't I be lovely? (Mm)
Why can't I be yours?
I'm only your baby doll
When you get bored
I wanna be precious
Not left on the floor
Cryin' and desperate
Darlin', what am I for?
Check in, check out
One night stay, you're out the door
You treat me like a
Motel whore
[Chorus]
Tell me I'm more (Tell me I'm more)
Tell me I'm more (Tell me I'm more)
I promise I'm more (I promise I'm more)
More than your goddamn motel whore
[Outro]
Leave me
Like a wounded horse
Did your mother raise her son
To love a lady like a corpse?
Mm, ah-ha
I'm not a motel whore
