Tom T. Hall Lyrics
Big Motel on the Mountain

This song is for you big motel on the mountain
just in thought to pass the time And for the
people who have loved and some have been loved And
some were wanted inside your walls And for the 22
year old college girl Who made that last semester
with her smile along your halls And for the
trav'ling salesman and the Friday night time
dinner out time crowd Some were seeking
stimulation in the laughter noise and drinks the
music loud This song is for you big motel on the
mountain just in thought to pass the time [piano
]
And for the Wednesday Night Auxiliary that meets

inside your banquet room at nine For the women's
club and the social leads and the regular
attendants every time For the lost abandoned child
by your northside entrance left alone to die For
the long haired wide eyed boy selling dope and
looking for a place to hide This song is for you
big motel on the mountain just in thought to pass
the time [piano]
For the middle aged executive who thought he'd
seen enough To slash his wrist in No 10 And for
the 32 year old housewife who got caught with her
best friend's husband She ain't around to try
again For the 7 year old girl swingin' slidin' on
the west side near the pool Saying why couldn't
dad come home with us mama Why you got to put me
in that school This song is for you big motel on
the mountain just in thought to pass the time
