When a hotel room''s the closest thing you got to home

You could be in Philadelphia you could even be in Rome

You gotta dial nine to get an outside line

I even need a concierge just to take a drive - it''s a crazy life

I hope to see you smile - but I''m always wrong

It''s a different melody but the same old song...

Ya I''ve been on the road nearly all my life

Been around the world ''bout a thousand times

Still a knock on the door makes me nervous

I think I''ll see you standing there - but no

It''s only room service - ya room service

I''ve been living out my suitcase as long as I remember

Life''s the same - it doesn''t change - it''s a gibson or a fender

I still think about you babe - I swear sometimes I see your face

These are crazy days

Ya I think I hear your voice - but it''s just a dream

It''s a brand new movie but the same old scene

Ya I''ve been on the road nearly all my life

Been around the world ''bout a thousand times

Still a knock on the door makes me nervous

I think I''ll see you standing there - but no

It''s only room service - ya room service

Ya know I wouldn''t change a thing - no

I''m just waiting for the bell in room to ring

I hope to see you smile - but I''m always wrong

It''s a different melody but the same old song...
