Neon Sky by Bob Seger Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's the neon sky that I know so well
There's the smoky room where I chose to dwell
Though I hear your heart many miles away
The neon sky tells me I must stay

[Verse 2]
Through the windy field of another land
I have seen your face, girl, I have held your hand
Though I should be there, with you there today
The neon sky knows that I must stay

[Chorus]
'Cause the devil's red but his money's green
That's where I'm from, oh, that's where I've been

[Verse 3]
On a dusty stage many years ago
I chose my road, still I hope you know
That there'll come a day with the neon sky
When we'll walk into the sun, you and I
[Verse 4]
Yes, so he calls, beckons unto me
From the empty hall, from the galleries
And so I must go, leave you here today
'Cause the neon sky orders me away

[Chorus]
Yes, the devil's red but his money's green
That's where I'm from, oh, that's where I've been
