Lyrics

[Chorus] Don't wanna die in a Super 8 motel Just because somebody's evening didn't go so well If I ever get back to Bristol, I'm better off sleeping in the county jail I don't wanna die in a Super 8 motel [Verse 1] Having such a sweet night, audience was just right Drinking like a pirate do Don't wanna sleep yet, buddy, it's a good bet I'll raise more hell than you Do a couple rails and chase your own tail Talk about the bad ol' days Tremor in a t-shirt telling me her heart hurt Honey, let me count the ways Then a big boy busted in, screaming 'bout his girlfriend And waving 'round a fungo bat Bass player stepping up, brandishing a coffee cup Took it in the baby fat [Chorus] Don't wanna die in a Super 8 motel Just because somebody's evening didn't go so well If I ever get back to Bristol, I'm better off sleeping in the county jail I don't wanna die in a Super 8 motel [Verse 2] When they finally got the room clear, I'm bleeding from my left ear Feeling pretty bad for the maid Lost a couple drinks and my dinner in the sink And I woke up with the bed still made Well, it wasn't quite morning, I wasn't quite breathing My heart way up in my throat Girl starts screaming and the maid starts screaming And it looks like it's all she wrote Then they slapped me back to life and they telephoned my wife And they filled me full of Pedialyte Saw my guts and my glory, woulda make a great story If I only could remember it right [Chorus] Don't wanna die in a Super 8 motel Just because somebody's evening didn't go so well If I ever get back to Bristol, I'm better off sleeping in the county jail I don't wanna die in a Super 8 motel [Outro] Well, I don't wanna die in a Super 8 motel [Interlude] Thank you
