ely joe - Standin` at the Big Hotel слова песни
I was standin at a big hotelwishin everybody wellbut if anybody paid me any mind it was hard to tella big policeman on his beatpulled his pistol and he pointed at melookin down the barrel I could see the gates of hellI was Standin` At A Big Hotelso i went walkin down the avenuelookin for someone who looked like youbut I never saw a face that seemed to ring a bellso I stopped beside the five and dimejust window-shoppin and wastin timewhen along came a gal who sold me all she had to sellshe left me Standin` At A Big HotelI lost my mind in the wilds of HollywoodI did some time in the shadows where I stoodI let the cards fall where they fell...and I found myself Standin` At A Big Hotela blind lady with a big tin cuphad her pencils all sharpened upshe was standin in the door just to see what she could sellbut nobody bought a thing all nightthey thought she was a pitiful sightLord help the gal who helps herselfStandin` At A Big Hotellong gone are horse n buggy daysbig limousines are here to stayand when they see you to the doorthey want something for their helpbut I saw somebody make a little sliphe only left the kid a ten cent tipyou shoulda heard what I heard when I heard that bell boy yell...Standin` At A Big HotelLord Lord what`s the matter with meto pay so much for the song I singwhen all I was doin was singin it to myselflike standin in a stagnant streamwith nothin in the world left to dreamI was dyin at the bottom of a dried up wishin wellI was Standin` At A Big Hotelwell I know what you`re thinkin todayI can feel it though I`m miles awayeverybody knows I love my southern bellebut from the east to the wild wild westthey say a bird in the hand is bestso here I am with a bird dog and a bottle of muscatelStandin` At A Big Hotel
