Daddy won a radio, 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, taught me that sweet harmony Now she worries cause she never thought, I'd ever really take it this far Singin' in 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 coffe cup, five 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 into it, lord it makes this thing I'm doing seem alright Standin' in the spotlight 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 I wouldn't trade a minute, and I wouldn't have it any other way Just show me to the stage
