[Verse 1]
I left home when I was seventeen, not knowing of the world but chasing my dreams, stars mirrored brightly deep within my eyes, hopeing that one day, to the top I will rise, days turn to months and months turn to years, with each fading show, my chances disappear.
[Chorus]
So when you've been out there playing thru the pain, thru daylight and darkness and even in the rain, as stage lights flicker and the crowd begins to yell, just remember to go home or even drop a dime, to the wife and kids, that you left behind.
[Soft Saxaphone Lead]
[Verse 2]
Time rolls by, family I have not seen, running down the highways, chasing that neon dream, the music that I play, keeps running thru my veins, like a hillbilly cryer, it can drive you insane
[Chorus]
So when you've been out there playing thru the pain, thru daylight and darkness and even in the rain, as stage lights flicker and the crowd begins to yell, just remember to go home or even drop a dime, to the wife and kids, that you left behind.
[Verse 3 SPOKEN]
The highway is the road and the road is my dream, the venue that you play, stays deep within your heart, sometimes you forget, just where it all did start.
[Chorus]
So when you've been out there playing thru the pain, thru daylight and darkness and even in the rain, as stage lights flicker and the crowd begins to yell, just remember to go home or even drop a dime, to the wife and kids, that you left behind.
