Chasin' That Neon Rainbow

Daddy won a radio
He tuned it to a country show
I was rockin’ in the cradle
To the cryin’ of a steel guitar

Mama used to sing to me
She taught me that sweet harmony
Now she worries cause never thought
I’d ever really take it this far

Singin’ in the bars and
Chasin’ that neon rainbow
Livin’ that honky-tonk dream
Cause all I’ve ever wanted is to
Pick this guitar and sing

Just tryin’ to be somebody
Just wanna be heard and seen
A chasin’ that neon rainbow
Livin’ that honky-tonk dream

An atlas and a coffee cup
5 pickers in an old dodge truck
Headin’ down to Houston for a show
On Saturday night

This overhead is killin’ me
Half the time I sing for free
But when the crowd’s in to it lord
It makes this thing I'm doin’ seem right

Standin’ in the spotlight
Chasin’ that neon rainbow
I'm a livin’ that honky-tonk dream
Cause all I’ve ever wanted is to
Pick this guitar and sing

Just tryin’ to be somebody
That’s want to be heard and seen
Chasin’ that neon rainbow
Livin’ that honky-tonk dream

Daddy’s got a radio
He won it 30 years ago
He said: Son I just know we’re gonna
Hear you sing on it some day

I made it up to music row
Lordy don’t the wheels turn slow
Still I wouldn’t trade a minute
I wouldn’t have it any other way

Just show me to the stage, I'm
Chasin’ that neon rainbow
I'm a livin’ that honky-tonk dream
Cause all I’ve ever wanted
Is to pick this guitar and sing

Just tryin’ to be somebody
That’s wanna be heard and seen
Chasin’ that neon rainbow
Livin’ that honky-tonk dream

Oh, I'm chasin’ that neon rainbow
Livin’ that honky-tonk dream
