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
