Lyrics

[00:16.85] Out on Route 66, way back in the sticks
[00:21.54] Out on the old Chisolm trail
[00:25.33] Just east of El Reno next to Ted’s Escondido
[00:29.45] Sat the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[00:32.46]
[00:35.63] Lucille and Madonna slinging cheese enchiladas
[00:39.84] Chain smoking non-filtered Pall Malls
[00:43.90] Old men shooting pool and cursing like fools
[00:48.32] At the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[00:51.58]
[00:52.19] Yeah the old Lucky Diamond, Lucky Diamond Motel
[00:57.07] The Queen of the old mother road
[01:00.98] There’s color TV and the kids eat for free
[01:05.11] At the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[01:08.36]
[01:15.89] There’s air streams and truckers and two timing lovers
[01:20.42] Teenagers out raising hell
[01:24.03] There’s cowboys and shriners and old five and dimers
[01:28.26] At the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[01:31.51]
[01:32.72] Room 23 was the first time for me
[01:36.75] A stripper named Rita Cantrell
[01:40.63] I spent all of my money on that sweet Spanish honey
[01:45.18] At the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[01:47.99]
[01:48.88] Yeah the old Lucky Diamond, Lucky Diamond Motel
[01:53.64] The Queen of the old mother road
[01:57.56] There’s color TV and the kids eat for free
[02:02.05] At the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[02:04.95]
[02:11.75] Oh the sign said, we doze but we never do close
[02:16.44] I remember her red dress so well
[02:20.54] Old Rita’s passed on, the neon sign’s gone
[02:24.95] At the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[02:28.24]
[02:28.76] There’s a big wrecking ball
[02:31.05] Just tore down the wall, a piece of America fell
[02:37.26] Now I’m all for progress, but God knows that I miss
[02:41.46] The old Lucky Diamond Motel
[03:01.13][02:43.91]
[03:01.96][02:45.13] Yeah the old Lucky Diamond, Lucky Diamond Motel
[03:06.59][02:49.93] The Queen of the old mother road
[03:10.60][02:53.94] There’s color TV and the kids eat for free
[03:14.70][02:58.04] At the old Lucky Diamond Motel
[03:20.91]
[03:22.12]
