Hangdog Hotel Room

Gordon Lightfoot

Transposer:

verse 1. I go in for singin? I do it for my pay But the kind of gig I can really dig Happens at the break of day With a few good friends and neighbours Into playin? the night-time tunes So pass the jar and that old guitar In this hangdog hotel room. verse 2. I believe in magic a little monkey-shines But the kind of row I can really hoe Is playin? in tune on time With rhythms all around us we?re like weavers at the loom So pass the jar and that old guitar In this hangdog hotel room. Oh Lord it feels so good to play a night-time tune So pass the jar and that old guitar In this hangdog hotel room. verse 3. When it comes to morning and going out at night Well the kind of test that I like best Is treating the wrong girl right. And a few good friends and neighbours Into playin? the night-time tunes So pass the jar and that old guitar In this hangdog hotel room. Oh Lord it feels so good to play a night-time tune So pass the jar and that old guitar In this hangdog hotel room. With rhythms all around us we?re like weavers at the loom So pass the jar and that old guitar In this hangdog hotel room. So pass the jar and that old guitar In this hangdog ---- hotel room.

Cette chanson évoque la passion de vivre la musique en compagnie d’amis, surtout lors de performances nocturnes. Elle évoque une ambiance décontractée où les musiciens se réunissent dans une chambre d'hôtel modeste pour partager des moments joyeux autour de la guitare et d’un verre. L'artiste exprime son désir de jouer des mélodies entraînantes, tout en soulignant l'importance des relations amicales et des rencontres. Au fil des paroles, il fait également allusion à la magie des instants simples, capturant la beauté des échanges humains en musique. C'est un hommage à l'authenticité et au bonheur de créer ensemble, même dans des lieux modestes.
