Alan Jackson - Chasin` That Neon Rainbow

(Alan Jackson/Jim McBride)
Daddy won a radio
Tuned it to a country show
I was rocking in the cradle to the crying of a steel guitar
Mama used to sing to me
She taught me that sweet harmony
Now she worries `cause she never thought
I`d ever really take it this far
Singing in the bars and
Chasin` the neon rainbow
Livin` that honky tonk dream
`Cause all I`ve ever wanted
Is too pick this guitar and sing
Just trying to be somebody
Just wanna be heard and seen
Chasin` that neon rainbow
Livin` that honky tonk dream
An atlas and a coffe cup
Five pickers in an old Dodge truck
Heading down to Houston for a show on Saturday night
This overhead is killing me
Half the time I sing for free
But when the crowd`s into it
Lord it makes this thing I doing seem right
Standing in the spotlight
Chasin` the neon rainbow
Livin` that honky tonk dream
`Cause all I`ve ever wanted
Is too pick this guit ar and sing
Just trying to be somebody
Just wanna be heard and seen
Chasin` that neon rainbow
Livin` that honky tonk dream
Daddy`s got a radio
He won it thrity years ago
He said `Son I just now we`re gonna hear you singing on it someday` I
made it up to Music Row Lordy don`t the wheels turn slow But I wouldn`t
trade a minute I wouldn`t have it any other way Just show me to the
stage
I`m chasin` the neon rainbow
Livin` that honky tonk dream
`Cause all I`ve ever wanted
Is too pick this guitar and sing
Just trying to be somebody
Just wanna be heard and seen
Chasin` that neon rainbow
Livin` that honky tonk dream
I`m chasin` the neon rainbow
Livin` that honky tonk dream
