Lyrics
Yeah, I'm down bad
She slammed that door, she broke my heart, that girl so got
Out of town fast, she bounced
So I bounced in here, try'na bounce back
Ooh, I know I probably ought to throw a couple prayers up
To the man upstairs
Ooh, instead of watchin' this bottle that was filled up just disappear
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
Hope they're hangin' from behind the bar
Hopin' there's a U-turn in your car
Don't know why I do, 'cause it never comes true
Hey baby, what's it gon' take
For my head to unhurt and my heart to unbreak
Ridin' on the lightning in this jar
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
Girl, it happens every damn time
You pourin' up strong, and before too long
Just old number seven's on round nine
A lot of down bar bad time
Yeah, and ooh
I know I probably ought to throw a couple prayers up
To the man upstairs
Ooh, instead of lettin' this heart stay beat down
Pullin' up this chair
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
Hope they're hangin' from behind the bar
Hopin' there's a U-turn in your car
Don't know why I do, 'cause it never comes true
Hey baby, what's it gon' take
For my head to unhurt and my heart to unbreak
Ridin' on the lightning in this jar
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
You ain't the only one up so high
Make a little room, 'cause so am I
I need a little help gettin' sleep tonight
So I'm singin' me country boy lullaby, like
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
Hope they're hangin' from behind the bar
Hopin' there's a U-turn in your car
Don't know why I do, 'cause it never comes true
Hey baby, what's it gon' take
For my head to unhurt and my heart to unbreak
Ridin' on the lightning in this jar
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
Hope they're hangin' from behind the bar
Hopin' there's a U-turn in your car
Don't know why I do, 'cause it never comes true
Hey baby, what's it gon' take
For my head to unhurt and my heart to unbreak
Ridin' on the lightning in this jar
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
Neon star
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
Sittin' there wishin' on a neon star
