Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We packed up that old Ford
One suitcase and a map
Her red scarf
My blue jacket
Dog asleep in her lap
We wound up through those switchbacks
Cabin leaning in the pines
Porch light flickered
Breeze got colder
Like it was reading our minds
[Chorus]
Got those mountain motel blues
Where the air cuts clean and thin
Three hearts walked in together
Only two walked out again
Got those mountain motel blues
Snow erasing every track
Sheriff said
"Son
I can't prove it"
"But you ain't gettin' her back"
[Verse 2]
We drank burnt coffee in the diner
Jukebox humming low
Dog chased shadows in the parking lot
Till the sky began to snow
Night fell like a curtain
Power lines all went dead
I woke up to that dog a-howlin'
And a dark stain on the bed
[Chorus]
Got those mountain motel blues
Where the clocks all run too slow
Every question just keeps circlin'
Round the things I'll never know
Got those mountain motel blues
Truth is tangled up in black
They said
"Boy
It’s just bad timing"
"World don't ever give things back"
[Bridge]
Dog’s nose on the doorway (soft whine)
Eyes fixed on the trees
Her coat still on the hanger
Room key on her knees
They drew their little circles
On paper thin as skin
But the lines never quite connected
To how the night caved in
[Chorus]
Got those mountain motel blues
Where the law runs out of road
And the ghosts sit in the lobby
While the radiator groans
Got those mountain motel blues
Left with collar
Leash
And tracks
Three hearts checked in together
Only questions comin' back

1950s slow blues shuffle, tube amp guitar with gentle tremolo, upright bass walking lazily, brushed snare and ride cymbal. Male vocals, smoky and close, with call-and-response female backing in the chorus. Harmonica adds lonely fills, piano stabs on the turnarounds. Dynamics stay simmering, last chorus pushes the vocal grit and bends the blue notes hard., blues
