Lyra (Queen of the Starlite Motel) Lyrics by Gabe Lee

farmland

2019

[Verse 1]
Well alright, so long
My better days have come and gone
You see I was a mess, y’all
About as bad as they come
And I was walking through the valley of wrong
Yeah, so I drink and get high
Cussing at the clear blue sky
‘Til I finally found her
Tall drink of water
Standing by the motel sign
And she said
[Pre-Chorus]
“Hey there Mister, so nice to see you
I heard you’ve broken the law
Now we can’t be too loud
And you better be quick now
Just because I got a line down the hall”
Oh, Lyra, Lyra
You’re pushing me against the wall
Yeah, she said “Your time is up
And I’ve had enough
Now get your skinny ass on the floor”
[Chorus]
So if you see me tonight
They’ve caught a man on the run
His undercover surprise
The darling deputy’s gun
He'll do
Yeah whatever you want
Give you
Oh whatever you need
Long as
Long as you throw me a line
Fill me
Fill me your vacancy please
[Verse 2]
Now that sweet old Dixie line
How many times have I known?
You see she used to carry me all the way
Across the great state of Tennessee
Until the very day y’all, she just couldn’t no more
Yeah so I crawl, I drive
Late December through to mid July
Where the interstate was murder
But her eyes were killer
And I was looking for a place to die
When she says
[Pre-Chorus]
“Hi there sweetheart, since you’ve come so far
Why don’t you stay here for a while
Now I don’t bite none
And I’ll fix you up hon
I bet you heard me through the radio dial"
Oh Lyra, well Lyra
I never mean to let you down
Yeah I’m about to climb upstairs
And hop into bed
Just to show you I ain’t messing around
[Chorus]
So if you see me tonight
They’ve caught a man on the run
His undercover surprise
The darling deputy’s gun
He'll do
Yeah whatever you want
Give you
Oh whatever you need
Long as
Long as you throw me a line
Fill me
Fill me your vacancy please
Ooh-ooh
