Heading down to Houston for a show on Saturday night
Chasin' the neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
'Cause all I've ever wanted is to pick this guitar and sing
Just trying to be somebody, just wanna be heard and seen
Daddy's got a radio, he won it thirty years ago
An atlas and a coffee cup, five pickers in an old Dodge truck
But when the crowd's into it, Lord it makes this thing I doing seem right
Now she worries 'cause she never thought I'd ever really take it this far
Just trying to be somebody, just wanna be heard and seen
Still I wouldn't trade a minute, I wouldn't have it any other way
I'm chasin' that neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
Well this overhead is killing me, half the time I sing for free
Well I made it up to music row Lordy don't the wheels turn slow
Standing in the spotlight
Chasin' the neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
Mama used to sing to me, she taught me that sweet harmony
Just show me to the stage
Chasin' the neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
Chasin' that neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
'Cause all I've ever wanted is to pick this guitar and sing
'Cause all I've ever wanted is to pick this guitar and sing
He said, "Son I just now we're gonna hear you singing on it someday"
Just trying to be somebody, just wanna be heard and seen
Singing in the bars and
Chasin' that neon rainbow, livin' that honky tonk dream
