Needle Drop

[Intro]
[Verse]
Flipping through the scuffed up crates
Checking all the release dates
Boss is yelling 'bout the floor
I can’t take it anymore
Price tags on the plastic sleeves
Every single soul just leaves
I’m just wasting all my light
Working for the man tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
Keys are on the counter now
I finally made a silent vow
No more dusty basement air
I’m headed for the anywhere
[Chorus]
Turn the key and let it roar
I’m not working here no more
Chasing neon down the line
Feeling like I’m doing fine
From the coast to the dive bar floor
I’m giving them what they came for
[Post-Chorus]
Let it roar
Give 'em more
Hit the floor
Out the door
[Verse]
Sun-bleached signs on Highway Ten
Feeling like a kid again
Tattered setlist on the seat
Spilling beer and feeling heat
Seventeen had all the nerve
I missed every single curve
But I’m catching up to speed
Finding everything I need
[Pre-Chorus]
Billboard shadows on the dash
Making such a reckless splash
I can see the city glow
Ready for the midnight show
[Chorus]
Turn the key and let it roar
I’m not working here no more
Chasing neon down the line
Feeling like I’m doing fine
From the coast to the dive bar floor
I’m giving them what they came for
[Bridge]
Honky-tonk keys on the radio
Where did all the wild years go?
I was scared to take the stage
Now I’m turning every page
Gritty voice and a broken string
Watch me play and hear me sing
[Solo]
[Verse]
Parking lot is full of smoke
Life is more than just a joke
Plug the lead into the amp
Underneath the flickering lamp
No more selling someone’s past
Found a sound that’s gonna last
Yeah the clerk has left the room
Watch the desert flowers bloom
[Chorus]
Turn the key and let it roar
I’m not working here no more
Chasing neon down the line
Feeling like I’m doing fine
From the coast to the dive bar floor
I’m giving them what they came for
[Post-Chorus]
Let it roar
Give 'em more
Hit the floor
Out the door
[Outro]
