Lyrics

I just got finished, given the hotel Manager back the room key, and paid my bill I was outside in the car in the shadows of the parkin' lot Tellin' the woman I was with how happy she made me Kissin' and huggin' And all of a sudden, another car pulled up on the parkin' lot But I couldn't believe my eyes 'Cause the woman that was sitting in the front seat beside another dude Turned out to be my old lady Lord, I was checkin' out And she was checkin' in Yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah) (Oh yeah) Mm, let me tell you people I was checkin' out, mm-mm And my old lady was checkin' in Oh Lord, have mercy I was with my other woman And she, she was with her boyfriend She waited outside y'all, in the car While he went in, yeah To rent the room I wanted to say something to her But there was nothing I could say, yeah 'Cause the woman I was with Yes, she was married too! Lord, I was checkin' out And she was checkin' in (checkin' in) Yeah, yeah, yeah Oh, yes she was Y'all, I saw another man took my old lady (Oh took my baby) Let me tell ya In the Hideaway Motor Inn (Motor Inn) yeah, baby, mm-mm Mm, I was with my other woman (Oh, I was treated wrong, yeah) And she was with her boyfriend She was supposed to be at home Mindin' the kids The both of us had been untrue (been untrue) Guess I'll have to go on bein' blind I can't reveal her guilt without showin' mine, Lord! I was checkin' out (Checkin' out, sho' nuff was) As she was checkin' in Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Hoo hey! Mm, let me tell ya What hurt me so bad, y'all (Hurt me, really hurt me so bad) really hurt me so bad (It hurt me) The man gave him the same room I had Yes, he did, yeah-yeah The same room I was in (yeah) Mm! What a terrible blow it was (Such a terrible, terrible, terrible thing it was) What a terrible thing to do to a man, yeah-yeah She was smilin' And she never smiles! I think my debt has caught up with me y'all Lord, have mercy
