(bar 1 and 2 - intro)
(bar 3 - play 3 times, then repeat 1 time after each line)

Shanghaied at midnight, to some sleazy motel,
The blonde leading the blind, ah, she does it so well!
A view of the highway, four walls and a bed,
She's taking me down now and I'm so easily lead.

(then bars 4 and 5 for...)
She's got me right there where she wants,

(then bar 6 with...)
Where she can work me all night long.

(then bars 7 8 and 9 for...)
Motel shaker, tangled in sheets
The more she gets, the more she needs.
Motel shaker, shaking the walls

(then bar 10 for...)

Three in the morning and she wants it all.

(then bar 3 i time and repeat all above for rest of lyrics)
She puts on her red dress and that's a dangerous sign
With her first-rate body and her one-track mind
Heart shakin' like an earthquake
Just a little more fun, when you think it's all over
Well she's hardly begun.

She don't care what they can hear next door
She just wants to get what she came for
Motel shaker, tangled in sheets
The more she gets, the more she needs
Motel shaker, shaking the walls
The neighbors are knockin', but she ain't stopping.
