Additional Lyrics:
Verse 2:
Back at the hotel, Lord we got such a mess.
It seems that one of the crew had a go with one of the guests, ah yes.
Well the police said we can't drink in the bar, what a shame.
Won't'cha come upstairs, girl, and have a drink of champagne?
Chorus
Verse 3:
Nine o'clock the next day, and I'm ready to go.
I got six hundred miles to ride to do one more show, oh no.
Can I get you a taxi home? It sure was grand.
When I come back here next year, I wanna see you again.
