lyrics

Oh Baby, you’re so curious ‘bout the new songs I’ve been writing
Since I’m number one on bluegrass radio
You knew I was a writer but you couldn’t name a title
That I wrote before I broke on bluegrass radio

Number three in California number five in Arizona didn’t seem to mean a thing to you
But I went number one in Texas
And now you fix me breakfast
Because I am a hit on bluegrass radio

50,000 WATTS of power and they play me every hour
Paul McCartney you can stand aside
But the bluegrass charts have picked me
Now I headline Hardly Strictly
You can’t escape my song on bluegrass radio

Number three in California number five in Arizona didn’t seem to mean a thing to you
But I got number one in Texas
And now you fix me breakfast
Because I am a hit on bluegrass radio

I check the charts every day
What do all the critics say?
Am I the guy that they all love to hate?
They seem to be so choosy
Just because I can’t read music
But who cares? I’m number one on bluegrass radio

Baby, you’re so curious ‘bout the new songs I’ve been writing
Now that I’m number one on bluegrass radio
Could this one be another
Monster hit just like the other
Another number one on bluegrass radio

Number three in California number five in Arizonia
They’re just truck stops on the way to number one
Now that I’m a winner
I have Chick Fil-A for dinner

Don’t you walk away Renee
I’m number one Bluegrass Today
Yesterday I couldn’t function
Now I’m played on Bluegrass Junction

Let me straighten my toupee
I’m playing at IBMA
Since I’m number one on bluegrass radio
You can’t escape my song on bluegrass radio
