Chasin Rainbows

You could say I've always been a dreamer

And that's how I'll always be, no matter if it's right or wrong

Chasin rainbows that I can't seem to catch a hold of

Living life like it was just another song

No the nightlife ain't no good life, but it's my life

Often times the road to nowhere just leads right on back to me

Yeah and sometimes I'm so lonesome I could cry

But I guess that just the way it's gotta be.

So it's one more show right here in Tyler, Texas

It's another gig in Houston and the next night San Antone

Just another smoky barroom in Mt. Pleasant

Where 85 seems like a million miles from home

Well I guess I'll be chasin rainbows til I'm gone.

My mama thinks it's crazy how I'm livin

My woman she believes in me, just as long as I'm at home

But I can't help but feel like I should be here singing

I'd rather die than see the day they prove me wrong.

So it's one more drunken redneck yellin "freebird"

It's another trip to Austin for a measly hundred bones

Just another girl that felt compelled to flash us

One more drink and she'll be ready to take home

Well I guess I'll be chasin rainbows til I'm gone.

When you're younger they all say "the sky's the limit"

But when you're older, how their tunes all seem to change

Try to tell you how they think you should be livin

But it won't do them no good, don't put this freebird in a cage

So it's one more little bar in College Station

It's another dirty hotel sending my love through the phone

Then it's just another stage in Gainesville, TX.

37 city limit signs from home

Well I guess I'll be chasin rainbows til I'm gone.
