Heartbreak Hotel - Lyrics - Tanya Tucker

Tanya Denise Tucker is an American female country music artist who had her first hit, "Delta Dawn", in 1972 at the age of 13. Over the succeeding decades, Tucker became one of the few child performers to mature into adulthood without losing her audience, and during the course of her career, she notched a streak of Top 10 and Top 40 hits. She has had several successful albums, several Country Music Association award nominations, and hit songs such as 1973's "What's Your Mama's Name?" and "Blood Red and Goin' Down," 1975's "Lizzie and the Rainman," and 1988's "Strong Enough to Bend".

Intro: This is a heartbreak hotel This is a heartbreak hotel This is a heartbreak hotel This is a heartbreak hotel (repeat) I (Whitney) You said you'd be here by 9 And said you took your time You didn't think to call me, boy Here I sit, tryin' not to cry Askin' myself why You'd do this to me Refrain (Faith) Since you're not around for me to tell you baby face to face I'm writin' you this letter, and this is what I have to say Chorus All I really wanted was someone to care Instead you told me lies when someone else was on your mind What you do to me, look what you did to me I thought that you were someone who would do me right Until you played with me emotions and you made me cry What you do to me, you take what you did to me II (Whitney) Now I see that you've been doin' wrong And played me all along And made a fool of me, baby You got it all wrong to think that I wouldn't find out (Uh!)
