"I told my woman that I'd only be gone for a couple of days.
I had a friend who was in need of a guitar picker in the worst ways!
(In the worst ways!)
Well I kissed that woman goodbye,
and she yelled out as I drove by...
Don't you let me catch you stayin in a Holiday Hotel!
Well I bought myself a ticket on the LA Express
I was destined for Modesto.
When I met my Navy buddy he said
I need you!
And I said
fine friend!
Well he told me that he had a surprize,
but what I didn't know I finally surmised.
I was standin there holdin a key to a Holiday Hotel!
((interlude))
I was awakened in the mornin,
by the ringin of the phone,
it was the hotel operator
I got a message from my friend
who'd checked out
he said
I'll see you later,
bye bye now!
He ran out before he'd paid me my bread
I remembered what my baby had said
Don't you let me catch you stayin in a Holiday Hotel!
Don't you let me catch you stayin in a Holiday Hotel!"
