Memory Motel No Security by The Rolling Stones Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1998

[Keyboard Intro]

[Verse 1: Mick Jagger]
Hannah baby was a peachy kind of girl
Her eyes were hazel and her teeth were slightly curved
We spent a lonely night at the Memory Motel
It's on the ocean I guess you know it well
It took a starry night to steal my breath away
Out on the waterfront her hair all drenched
In spray

[Verse 2: Dave Matthews]
Hannah baby was a honey of a girl
Her eyes were hazel her teeth were slightly curved
She took my guitar and she began to play
She sang a song to me, stuck right in my head

[Chorus: Dave Matthews & Mick Jagger]
You’re just a memory of a love that used to be
You're just a memory of a love that used to mean so
Much to me
[Post-Chorus: Dave Matthews]
She got a mind of her own and she use it well, yeah
Well she's one of a kind
Got a mind
She got a mind of her own, yeah, and she use it mighty fine, yeah

[Verse 3: Dave Matthews & Mick Jagger]
She drove a pick-up truck painted green and blue
The tires were wearing thin she done a mile or two
And when I asked her where she’s headed for
Back up to Boston I'm singing in a bar

[Chorus: Dave Matthews & Mick Jagger]
You're just a memory of a love that used to be
You're just a memory of a love that used to mean so
Much to me

[Post-Chorus: Dave Matthews]
She got a mind of her own and she use it well
Mighty fine she's one of a kind
She got a mind of her own
She's one of a kind and she use it well

[Verse 4: Dave Matthews & Mick Jagger]
On the seventh day my eyes were all ablaze
We been ten thousand miles and been in fifteen states
Every woman seemed to fade out of my mind
I hit the bottle and I hit the sack and cried
What's all the laughter on the twenty-second floor?
It's just some friends of mine and they’re busting
Down the doors
It’s been a lonely night at the Memory Motel
Okay, here we go
[Chorus: Dave Matthews & Mick Jagger]
You're just a memory of a love that used to be
You’re just a memory of a love that used to mean so
Much to me

[Outro: Dave Matthews]
She got a mind of her own and she use it well
Mighty fine she's one of a kind
She got a mind of her own
And she use it might fine

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
