Love Is a Strange Hotel

Now the bride showed up
The groom did not
She was dressed in lace
To tie that knot
Tears were flowin' from the champagne well
Guess nobody told her that love is a strange hotel

Now her daddy got drunk
I think the preacher did too
And her mummy ran off
With Uncle Lou
The choir was singing those blues so well
You see everybody knows that love is a strange hotel

You see the walls are cracked
The pain is thin
And you can't turn back, no
Once you've checked in
The whole town laughing at the ringing of the bell
You see everybody knows that love is a strange hotel
I don't want to live a lie anymore
I don't want to go through that once again
You can take your flowers your wedding cake
Leave them out in the rain

Now I'm across the street
The bus is due
I could never be
The best man for you
You'll be the blushing bride until
You find out that love is a strange
Everybody knows that love is a strange hotel
Love is a strange hotel.
