an independent station
just like a local cafe
servin' up local music
played by a real local human DJ
and it's the voice of this town
they got their own news team
they tell me where I can purchase a pizza
They got the friday night football game
they're playin' every style of music
And every song that you hear is one-of-a-kind
the DJ's keepin' it fresh and exciting
tune in you never know just what you'll find
me and all my all my buddies in the local bands
workin' hard to put some magic on the airwaves for our fans
turn it up loud let the music flow
I wanna hear my song on The Free Radio
Verse 2
well I can still remember
when radio wasn't free
when the owners bought up all the stations
they laid off the locals and used the towers for their feed
they dressed up some fake gangsters and cowboys
fired up the corporate imitation music machine
they let em' rap and twang and yodel
but it had no soul if you know what I mean
when we had finally had enough
we bought back all the stations and set em' free
we hired back all of the local folks
gave the radio back to each community
me and all my all my buddies in the local bands
workin hard to put some magic on the airwaves for our fans
turn it up loud let the music flow
I wanna hear my song on The Free Radio
me and all my all my buddies in the local bands
workin hard to put some magic on the airwaves for our fans
turn it up loud let the music flow
I'm gonna hear my song on The Free Radio
turn it up loud let the music flow
shut up they're playin' my song on The Free Radio
