Jackson Hill - Name in Lights Lyrics
Official




I got a job from nine to five
That pays to keep the dream alive
I swear I'm closer than I was
But five years are turning into ten
Changing faster than my friends
Just let this town do what it does
I used to want to see my name in lights
Nowadays I'm glad to see them on
Prove to myself I was worth much more
Than a pass time for a debutante
Stare down my bullies front page of a magazine in the grocery line
Now I don't ever tell lies
And I don't dream about my name in lights
Mom and Dad think I'm a country star
Cuz I play the rounds at all the bars
The radio played my song one time
And when you get turned down for the hundredth time
Or ignored when you have a bad write you start to think
You're only as good as you can rhyme
I used to want to see my name in lights
Nowadays I'm glad to see them on
Prove to myself I was worth much more
Than a pass time for a debutante
Stare down my bullies front page of a magazine in the grocery line
Now I don't ever tell lies
And I don't dream about my name in lights
While some get signed most are forgotten
Fewer get put on hold
We all get a little Instagram famous
Until our name gets old
I used to want to see my name in lights
Nowadays I'm glad to see them on
Prove to myself I was worth much more
Than a pass time for a debutante
Stare down my bullies front page of a magazine in the grocery line
Now I don't ever tell lies
And I don't dream about my name in lights
