Cover art for Memory Motel lyrics by Rolling Stones, The

the live version with Dave Matthews is good too.
On that version Dave sings the "I hit the bottle and hit the sack and cried" part and it gives a new interpretation to the song. The way he sings the line it makes it seem like "hitting the sack" has nothing to do with sleeping but all to do with a bag of mary jane.\ just a thought., i dunno.
