MAYBE YOU CAN’T AFFORD ‘LECTRICITY AND ARE STUMBLIN’ IN THE DARK
AND AMERICAN VETERANS MAY BE SLEEPIN’ IN YOUR LOCAL PARK
GOOD JOBS AN’ UNION INCOME MAY ALL BE LONG GONE
BUT YOU AIN’T GONNA HEAR NO SYMPATHY WHEN YOU TURN THE RADIO ON

          WE PLAY SONGS ‘BOUT BOOTS N’ MUD, PICKUP TRUCKS AN’ HOME GROWN BREW
           COWBOY MOM ON SOME BEACH WITH A DOG AN’ MARGARITA, TOO
           BUT IF WE CHALLENGE A CORRUPT CONGRESS, SPONSORS JUST SAY “NO”
           WE’RE AFRAID TO STAND UP FOR THE PEOPLE ON MUDDY CHANNEL RADIO

WE CLAIM WE’RE TOUGHT COWBOYS N’ GALS WHO STAND AN’ TAKE OUR LICKS
BUT WE’RE TOO SCARED OF OUR MOMMAS TO BREATH A WORD ‘BOUT POLITICS
EVEN IF WE HAD BALLS ENOUGH TO SING ‘BOUT WORKIN’ CLASS WOE
YOU WON’T LIKELY HEAR IT PLAYED ANYTIME SOON ON MAINSTREAM RADIO

          WE SPIN TUNES ‘BOUT SEX N’ BOOZE AN’ GETTIN’ DOWN ON A DIRTY HORSE
          FIGHTIN’ N’ CHEATIN’ AND A LITTLE BARROOM ROMANCE, OF COURSE
          BUT IF WE DARE DECLARE THERE AIN’T HEALTHCARE, SPONSORS JUST SAY “NO”
          WE’RE AFRAID TO STAND UP FOR THE PEOPLE ON MUDDY CHANNEL RADIO

WE PLAY SONGS ‘BOUT TRAINS, JUMPIN’ OUT’TA PLANES... THROW IN A LITTLE JESUS, TOO
BUT IF YOU’RE A WORKIN’ STIFF WE WON’T LIKELY HELP YOU BELIEVE HE DIED FOR YOU

           WE CLAIM TO LOVE GOD N’ COUNTRY AN’ BLEED RED, WHITE AN’ BLUE
           BUT WHEN IT COMES TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH WE AIN’T GOT A TICK-TURD CLUE
           IF WE PROTEST OIL WHORES’ ILLEGAL WARS, SPONSORS JUST SAY “NO”
          WE’RE AFRAID TO STAND UP FOR THE PEOPLE ON MUDDY CHANNEL RADIO

NOW IN NASHVILLE THERE’S A SOCIAL CLUB... CALLED MUSIC ROW DEMOCRATS
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO POLITICS HEARD ON RADIOS, TOBY KEITH KNOWS THEY’RE SCAREDY-CATS

WHILE GOD’S CHILDREN TAKE A SCREWIN’, WE’RE ALL LEFT JUS’ CHEWIN’
RECYCLED HO HUM BUBBLEGUM ON MUDDY CHANNEL RADIO
