Learned It From The Radio

(album: Tangled Up - 2015)

How to be proud of that town ain't nobody heard of
Had a big dream, seventeen, some day how to grow up
How to make dust fly out on no name road
I learned it from the radio

How to wake up
How to work tough
How to roll up those sleeves
How to throw down
How to get loud
What to put in that drink
To give the stars in the sky a little halo
I learned it from the radio

If it wasn't for the speakers in the door
Telling me a truth I hadn't ever heard before
I never would have kissed that girl
Never would have known what to say
I would have never known better
I'd have let her get away

Thank God for 4 wheel drive
Thank God for windows down
And all the DJs in all those little static towns
How to live
How to love
Everything I need to know
I learned it from the radio

What to say when you think that you've found that girl
Who to call when she's gone and she wrecks your world
How to get over it yeah how to let her go
I learned it from the radio
How to see it all from a front porch
And how to say it all just using three chords
And when to run when you're young
When to come back home
I learned it from the radio

If it wasn't for the speakers in the door
Telling me a truth I hadn't ever heard before
I never would have kissed that girl
Never would have known what to say
I would have never known better
I'd have let her get away

Thank God for 4 wheel drive
Thank God for windows down
And all the DJs in all those little static towns
How to live
How to love
Everything I need to know
I learned it from the radio

From the radio
I learned it form the radio
Back when we use to burn it up, turn it up up up up

If it wasn't for the speakers in the door
Telling me a truth I haven't ever heard before
I never would have kissed that girl
Never would have known what to say
I would have never known better
I'd have let her get away

Thank God for 4 wheel drive
Thank God for windows down
And all the DJs in all those little static towns
How to live
How to love
Everything I need to know
I learned it from the radio

Mmmm, from the radio
I learned it from the radio
Back when we use to burn it up
Turn it up
