Daddy won a radio
He tuned it to a country show
I was rockin in the cradle to the cryin of the steel guitar
Mama used to sing to me
She taught me that sweet harmony
Now she worries cause she never thaught I'd ever really take it this far
Singin in the bars and
Chasin that neon rainbow,
Livin that honky-tonk dream
cuz all I've ever wanted is to pick this guitar and sing
Just tryin to be somebody
just wanna be heard and seen
I'm chasin that neon rainbow
and livin that honk-tonk dream
An atlas and a coffee cup,
five pickers and an ol' dodge truck
headed 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 is into it, Lord it makes this thing I'm doin seem right
Standin in the spotlight
Chsin that neon rainbow,
I'm livin that honky-tonk dream
Cuz all I've ever wanted is to pick this guitar and sing
Just tryin to be somebody
Just wanna be heard and seen
I'm chasin that neon rainbow,
livin that honky-tonk dream
Daddy's got a radio
He won it 30 years ago
He saidson I just know I'm gonna hear you singin on it someday
Well 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 chaisin that neon rainbow
I'm livin that honky-tonk dream
Cuz all I've ever wanted is to pick this guitar and sing
Just tryin to be somebody
Just wanna be heard and seen
I'm chasin that neon rainbow,
and livin that honky-tonk dream
Oh I'm chasin that neon rainbow,
Livin that honky-tonk dream
