Thunderstorms And Neon Signs

(album: Risin' Outlaw - 1999)

Well, there's some big black clouds
That's a blowing in from the west
I've been driving all day
Lord, I sure could use some rest

And there's a motel up ahead where I can unwind
'Cause I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs

I grew up on the road from town to town
My daddy's line of work kept us moving around
I got fond memories of the way things were back then
The warmth of a neon when a cold storm is moving in

Listen to the opry in a small cafe
When we stop to get a bite along the way
Whenever I hear the wheels begin to whine
It takes me back to another time

I got a real nice room with a radio and TV
This here motel living is the only life for me
And it looks like it'll be raining for quite some time
Mixed with the lightning is the glow from a neon sign

Listen to the opry in a small cafe
When we stop to get a bite along the way
Whenever I hear the wheels begin to whine
It takes me back to another time

Well, there's some big black clouds
That's a blowing in from the west
I've been driving all day
Lord, I sure could use some rest

And there's a motel up ahead where I can unwind
'Cause I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs
'Cause I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs
