MR. RADIO (by Roderick Taylor; recorded by Trisha Yearwood)

[intro]
Oh, what a summer day when we carried the radio home
Bringing him in off of the truck and the dogs wouldn't leave us alone
()
Mister Radio, you come down here to keep us company
We listened in a room through the miles and the miles of night
Deep in the heart of the Bible Belt in the gold of the radio light
()
Mister Radio, you come down here to keep us company
And itUs hard days out in the field, and the crow's in the high treetop
If a man's away from his home all day, his chickens might fall to the fox
()
Mister Radio, what can you do about that, oh ho
- - - - - -
[instrumental]
And you can take me down to a river town where the citizens dance till dawn
They dance so close, it's a sin almost, the way they carry on
()
Mister Radio, I never dreamed you could
And it's miles of the careless touch of a tired hand in time
When evening fell, I heard a stranger sell dreams that were never mine
()
Mister Radio, you come down here to keep us company
You come down here to keep us company
- - - - - - /A.
[instrumental]
