CORRECT LYRICS:

Far from the evergreen of old Assam Far from the rainfall on the trails of Saigon Straight from the poster town of scorn and ritz We bring you the wilder side of gold and glitz

Run, neon tiger, there's a lot on your mind They promised just to pet you, but don't you let them get you Away, away, away Under the heat of the southwest sun

You took to the spotlight like a diamond ring You came from the woodwork with the hopes they might Redeem themselves from poor decisions to win big

Run, neon tiger, there's a lot on your mind They'll strategize and name you, but don't you let them tame you You're far too pure and bold To suffer the strain of the hangman's hold

I don't wanna be kept, I don't wanna be caged, I don't wanna be damned, oh hell I don't wanna be broke, I don't wanna be saved, I don't wanna be S.O.L. Give me rolling hills, so tonight can be the night that I can send them upon a thousand thrills Mister, cut me some slack, 'cause I don't wanna go back, I want a new day and age Come on girls and boys, everyone make some noise!

Run, neon tiger, there's a price on your head They'll hunt you down and gut you, I'll never let them touch you Away, away, away I'm begging you neon tiger, roar

Under the heat of Under the heat of Under the heat of the southwest sun

Neon Tiger There's a lot on your mind

just wondering, what does S.O.L mean? i probably sound like an idiot but yaknoww

actually, it never says i'm begging you neon tiger, roar it actually says i'm begging you neon tiger, run it wouldn't rhyme otherwise and also, it just doesn't say roar good job though, serously this guy needs to change it from "So I gone" to "saigon" I'm glad you did re-write it.

Thank you so much for correcting the lryics up there. The ones posted are crapppp!!!
