Alan Jackson

Chasin' That Neon Rainbow

Daddy won a radio
Tuned it to a country show
I was rockin' in the cradle
To the cryin' of steel guitar
Mama used to sing to me
Taught me that sweet harmony
Now she worries 'cause she never thought
I'd never really take it this far

Singin ín the bars

Chasin'that neon rainbow
Livin'that honky tonk dream
All I've ever wanted
Was to pick this guitar and sing
Just tryin'to be somebody
Just wanna be heard and seen
Chasin'that neon rainbow
Livin'that honky tonk dream

An atlas and a coffee cup
Five pickers in an old Dodge truck
Headin'down to Housten
For a show on saturday night
This overhead is killin' me
Half the time I sing for free
But when the crowd's into it
Lord it makes this thing I'm doing seem right

Standing in the spotlight

Chorus

Daddy's got a radio
He won it thirty years ago
He said „Son I just know we're gonna hear you singin
On it someday“
I made it up to Music Row
But Lordy don't the wheels turn slow
Still wouldn't have it any other way

Just show me to the stage

Chorus

I'm chasin'that neon rainbow
Livin'that honky tonk dream
