Lyrics

I'm just four walls with a little paint, a picture here or there I got a Bible in my dresser, just in case somebody cares I've been here forever, 1959 My name is on the front door, they call me 205 And man you can't imagine, the things that happen here I've seen my share of laughing and I've seen a lot of tears Drug deals and last meals and love that seemed so real Until I saw the flash of those hundred dollar bills But let me tell you something crazy, that I'd never seen before Starts with Johnny and Katie, first time they walked through my door It was a Friday night, late fall After a high school football game They snuck away, in a beat up Chevrolet Yeah they made love for the first time, Till that Carolina sun came up That's where it all began At the Conway Motor Inn Well they lit a cigarette, and talked about their lives Said they were getting married, after graduation night It all seemed so perfect, but they didn't have a clue That one be one of them would be right back here with someone new Now fast forward four years, and that white picket fence It ain't holding out what it should be keeping in See, I see Katie on the weekends, when Johnny's working nights And the man she's coming here with, ain't the man I recognize It was a Friday night, late fall After a high school football game They snuck away, in her lover's Escalade Yeah they made love for the first time, Till Johnny's graveyard shift was up Both livin' in sin At the Conway Motor Inn Tonight Johnny ain't working, cause he's right here with me With a pistol in his right hand, just waitin' on the key To turn in my door, and when they both walk in He lays that hammer down, and that's where this story ends It was a Friday night, late fall After a high school football game They snuck away, in a beat up Chevrolet Yeah they made love for the first time, Till that Carolina sun came up That's where it all began And that's where it all ends At the Conway Motor Inn At the Conway Motor Inn I've been here forever, 1959 My name is on the front door, they call me 205
