(Verse 1)
Well, I wake up every morning, put my boots on the ground,
Turn that dial to Texas country, best station around,
The DJ’s crackin’ jokes ‘bout his ex-wife again,
I swear he’s a rodeo clown, makin’ misery my friend.

The songs buck me around like a wild ol’ bull,
One minute I’m tearin’ up, next I’m feelin’ full,
Of Lone Star pride and whiskey dreams, oh no,
But that’s just how it goes at this radio rodeo.

(Chorus)
This radio’s my rodeo, it’s a wild ride every day,
With guitar solos like spurs and a twang that never fades,
I hang on tight when the DJ spins that dial,
‘Cause every country song’s a ride that lasts a while.
From heartbreak tunes to red dirt grooves, it’s a crazy show,
But I wouldn’t trade a second, ’cause this radio’s my rodeo!

(Verse 2)
Commercial break’s like getting tossed in the dirt,
They’re sellin’ boots, trucks, and even custom T-shirts,
I was right in the groove, feelin’ like I could fly,
Then they hit me with a jingle for some pie in the sky.

But the DJs rope me back in with a good ol’ song,
‘Bout beer and love and where it all went wrong,
I yell “Yeehaw!” when my favorite song’s on, you know,
I’m ridin’ the airwaves at this crazy radio rodeo.

(Chorus)
This radio’s my rodeo, it’s a wild ride every day,
With guitar solos like spurs and a twang that never fades,
I hang on tight when the DJ spins that dial,
‘Cause every country song’s a ride that lasts a while.
From heartbreak tunes to red dirt grooves, it’s a crazy show,
But I wouldn’t trade a second, ’cause this radio’s my rodeo!

(Bridge)
Static in the air? That’s a stampede rollin’ in,
But I ain’t quittin’ now, gotta see who’s gonna win,
Crank it up like spurrin’ the ol’ FM steer,
This radio’s my rodeo, I’m holdin’ on, no fear!

(Chorus)
This radio’s my rodeo, it’s a wild ride every day,
With guitar solos like spurs and a twang that never fades,
I hang on tight when the DJ spins that dial,
‘Cause every country song’s a ride that lasts a while.
From heartbreak tunes to red dirt grooves, it’s a crazy show,
But I wouldn’t trade a second, ’cause this radio’s my rodeo!

(Outro)
So let the music play, let the guitars go,
I’m ridin’ this frequency like a rodeo pro,
With my boots kicked up, this signal’s all I know,
Yeah, this radio’s my rodeo!
