I met a woman there one night
At the 'Loveless Motel And Restaurant', out on Highway 33
I met a woman there one night
The matchbook says, 'Call For Reservations'

Country ham and biscuits, delicious steaks
She kissed me like she was hungry
So we got a room, playing these tapes of her husband
In the morning, she looked like a horse

No moon just, just diesel trucks
Smoking little cigars, she says, "Doesn't he sound like Elvis?"
She makes champagne out of 7-Up and cheap wine like a chemist
Next to one of those insect electric chairs

Her skin gleaming blue, everytime a fly died
I read in the funnies, I laughed anyway
"Something's burning somewhere" I said, "Yes, two, two coffees"
"Yeah, it's us" she says, "You both want coffee?" the waitress says

Right Doris?
That's perfect on this cold, dim, fluorescent morning
And a couple of those donuts over there, right Doris?
Earth to Doris, Earth to Doris
