It started out in a cheap motel
Thirteen dollar bottle of wine
Seven days till my next show
I was looking for a place to unwind
There she was
Sun tanned beauty with dark brown hair
She was my next door neighbour
Damn those looks god gave her
A 10 in room 103
How did I get so lucky
She was right beside me
Ain't nothing but a memory
Guess it wasn't meant to be
I walked over and asked her name
And offered up that bottle of wine
She whispered something I shouldn't tell
Sent shivers up and down my spine
We talked all night side by side
In the green lawn chairs till the morning light
And that was the beginning
Of a week I can't forget
She was my next door neighbour
Damn those looks god gave her
A 10 in room 103
How did I get so lucky
She was right beside me
Ain't nothing but a memory
Five years later
I still think about her
And those nights down in east Tennessee
As I grow older
Sometimes I wonder
If she still ever thinks about me
She was my next door neighbour
Damn those looks god gave her
A 10 in room 103
She was my next door neighbour
Damn those looks god gave her
How did I
Get so lucky
Ain't nothing but a memory
Guess it wasn't meant to be
Guess it wasn't meant to be
It started out in a cheap motel
Thirteen dollar bottle of wine
