Lyrics

Rod price / dave peverett - riff bros. music - ascap

You've got a secret lover, you can't take home
You've got an ache deep down in your love bone
Come on check in, in a hurry
Under cover there's no need to worry
Stay all night if you got the time, or just one hour is fine, ooh so fine
Look in the mirror above your bed, yeah
Start to wonder if you're bein' mislead

Boogie motel, boogie motel
May be sleazy, but it's cheap and it's easy
Between heaven and hell, check in to the boogie motel

Desk clerk's heart beats like a hammer
Got a smile like a beat-up piano
Gives a nudge and a wink as you sign in
"I got a room you can have a good time in!"
What you want you can get for a price
Room service, send me something nice, so nice
Low down and nasty, ain't no savoy!
Bound to find something you can enjoy

Boogie motel, boogie motel
May be sleazy, but it's cheap and it's easy
Between heaven and hell - check in to the boogie motel

{Alto reed - tenor sax solo}
Whoo!
{Guitar solo}

"Red lights! blue movies! sweet music! close to business and home!"
Get on the highway, if you want to use it - can't make it alone

Boogie motel, boogie motel
May be sleazy, but it's cheap and it's easy

Between heaven and hell, yeah
You never can tell no
May be glad you checked in to the boogie motel

{Rod - slide solo - guitar solo - bluesy sax/guitar to fade}
