Country Radio - Indigo Girls

I work at the mall food court

When I get home

I fix something to eat

Settle into my seat

And turn on the country radio

I know every word

To every song

And they make these lonely nights a little less lonely

'Cause then I’m under the stars

Regular at the bar

Got a perfect girl, I got a worn in truck

We go down to the river

The moonlight is silver

But most of all I get to be in love

I wanna be that boy, I wanna be that girl

I wanna know what it’s like to fall in love like

Most of the rest of the world

But as far as these songs will take me

Is as far as I’ll go

I’m just a gay kid in a small town

Who loves country radio

I feel it in old time

I feel it brand new

The lights on refrain, the secrets in pain

Like only a song can know you

But then I close my eyes

It’s like I click my heels

That’s me in the story and the story is real

It works like a charm, I’ve got him on my arm

We’re taking a chance on a dance from the band

Is our favorite song, we’re singing along

And tonight, he’s gonna ask my hand

I wanna be that boy, I wanna be that girl

I wanna know what it’s like to fall in love like

Most of the rest of the world

But as far as these songs will take me is as far as I’ll go

I’m just a gay kid in a small town

Who loves country radio

And as I’m driving to work

The sign at your church says, «Repent now»

You can’t go back to the ways of the past

So I go twice as fast to turn you on

So I can live right now

That boy

I wanna be that girl

I wanna know what it’s like to find out like

Most of the rest of the world

I wanna be that boy (I wanna be that boy)

As far as these songs will take me is as far as I’ll go

I’m just a gay kid in a small town

Who loves country radio
