|
There's big black clouds blowin in from the west |
|
I've been drivin all day lord I sure could use some rest |
|
There's a motel up ahead where I can unwind |
|
Cause I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs |
|
I grew up on the rough from town to town |
|
My daddy's line of work kept us movin' around |
|
I got fond memories of the what things were back then |
|
The warmth of the neon when a bad storm was movin' in |
|
(Chorus) |
|
We 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 livin' is the only life for me |
|
And it looks like it'll be rainin' for quite some time |
|
And mixed with the lightnin' a glow from a neon sign |
|
[Interlude] |
|
(repeat chorus) |
|
There's a big black cloud blowin' in from the west |
|
I've been drivin' all day lord I sure could use some rest |
|
There's a motel up ahead where I can unwind |
|
'Cause I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs |
