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
