The man who ran the motel Said we couldn't spend the night there anymore That it'd take a week to clean the room twenty-three And put new carpet on the floor.
That we harmed his reputation And what about the shame and disgrace But we just never learned to love Without leaving love all over the place.

The lady at the rooming house Served our eviction notice yesterday While we were pickin' up our cloths She started screaming somebody's gonna pay.
She said it takes a dozen carpenters To fix the broken bed and drapes But we just never learned to love Without leavin' love all over ther place.
Loving always came to us easy I know it always will We don' need nobody to roll us down the other side When we're over the hill.
The mourners formed a single line As they filed by to pay their last respects And they couldn't help but wonder how Two lovers could break each others necks.
And they wondered why the undertakers Couldn't take the smiles from off their face Then the preacher said, Dearly beloved Why that sweet couple they just never learned to love Without leavin' love all over the place.
No, we never learned to love Without leavin' love all over the place...
