Thunderstorms and Neon Signs Songtext

von Wayne Hancock

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

Lord I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs
