Thunderstorms and Neon Signs

There's some 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

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' is the glow from a neon sign
