  1. I be on the hotline, like, e'ryday

  2. Makin' sure the DJ know what I want him to play

  3. You know I got my top back and my beat low, oh

  4. Rockin' my stunna shades and turnin' up my radio

  5. Turn up my radio (radio, radio)

  6. I think I'm in love with my radio

  7. 'Cause it never lets me down

  8. And I fall in love with my stereo

  1. Whenever I hear that sound

  2. (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

  3. (Oh-oh-oh-oh) whenever I hear that sound

  4. (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

  5. (Oh-oh-oh-oh) whenever I hear that sound

  6. You're the one one that Papa allowed to hang out in my room

  7. With the door closed, we'd be alone

  8. And mama never freaked out when she heard it go boom

  9. 'Cause she knew we were in the zone

  10. Hold him in my arms and look out on my window

  11. (Under the moonlight)

  12. And he be keepin' me calm, so I'd never let him go

  13. He's got a place in my heart

  14. I think I'm in love with my radio

  15. 'Cause it never lets me down

  16. And I fall in love with my stereo (with the stereo, oh-oh)

  17. Whenever I hear that sound (oh, whoa, whoa)

  18. (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) (oh-oh-oh, whoa-whoa-whoa, oh)

  19. (Oh-oh-oh-oh) whenever I hear that sound (oh, whoa, whoa)

  20. (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) (oh-oh-oh, whoa, oh-oh)

  21. (Oh-oh-oh-oh) whenever I hear that sound

  22. When I get into my car, I turn it up

  23. Then I hear vibrations all up in my trunk

  24. And the bassline be rattlin' through my seats

  25. Then that crazy feeling starts happening, oh

  26. I get butterflies when I hear the DJ

  27. (Playing the stuff I like)

  28. And I fall deeper in love with every song he plays

  29. He's got a place in my heart

  30. I think I'm in love with my radio (with my radio)

  31. 'Cause it never lets me down (never, no, no)

  32. And I fall in love with my stereo (with my stereo)

  33. Whenever I hear that sound (oh-oh, whoa, whoa)

  34. (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) (oh-oh, whoa-whoa)

  35. (Oh-oh-oh-oh) whenever I hear that sound (oh-oh, whoa-whoa)

  36. (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) (oh-oh-oh, whoa-whoa-whoa, oh)

  37. (Oh-oh-oh-oh) whenever I hear that sound

  38. I be on the hotline, like, e'ryday

  39. Makin' sure the DJ know what I want him to play

  40. You know I got my top back and my beat low, oh

  41. Rockin' my stunna shades and turnin' up my radio

  42. Turn up my radio (radio, radio)

  43. I think I'm in love with my radio

  44. 'Cause it never lets me down

  45. And I fall in love with my stereo

  46. Whenever I hear that sound

  47. (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) (oh-oh, whoa-whoa)

Radio

I be on the hotline, like, e'ryday

Makin' sure the DJ know what I want him to play

You know I got my top back and my beat low, oh

Rockin' my stunna shades and turnin' up my radio

Turn up my radio (radio, radio)

I think I'm in love with my radio

'Cause it never lets me down

And I fall in love with my stereo

Whenever I hear that sound

(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

You're the one one that Papa allowed to hang out in my room

With the door closed, we'd be alone

And mama never freaked out when she heard it go boom

'Cause she knew we were in the zone

Hold him in my arms and look out on my window

(Under the moonlight)

And he be keepin' me calm, so I'd never let him go

He's got a place in my heart

I think I'm in love with my radio

'Cause it never lets me down

And I fall in love with my stereo (with the stereo, oh-oh)

And the bassline be rattlin' through my seats

Then that crazy feeling starts happening, oh

I get butterflies when I hear the DJ
