This Side of the Radio Lyrics

Verse 1:
Top of the hour, news man comes on my pickup radio
To bring all the good news of the day, but is there any, I didn�t think so
They twist the good stuff, �cause that just flat don't sell or so they say
Well I�ve got news for Mister News, �cause just today

Chorus:
Right here at home the sun was shinin�, the bills are stacked and the baby�s cryin�
But we still thank God every day, that we can live our lives way out here
Underneath this western sky, shed a little light on the other side
Spare me the critics and money scope,
The news is a whole lot better on this side of the radio

Verse 2:
Front page this morning, looked pretty darn depressing to me
It�s all drugs and death, divorce and anti-war, scandals and celebrities
Those reporters make the superficial things make big headlines
I think they�d all sell their souls just to sell a little time

Chorus

Bridge:
Thirty seconds past the hour and I reach down to change the tune,
Try to find some Jackson, Paisley, Strait, or Chris LeDoux

Verse 3:
In this little town, there�s not much going on any given day
But we still like to try to live our lives in a pure and simple way
Don�t get me wrong, we�re far from perfect, we know we are
But to say we�re out of touch or mind is going pretty far

Chorus 3:
Right here at home the sun was shinin�, the grass is green and my baby�s smilin�
And we still thank God every day, that we can live our lives way out here
Under this big western sky, shed a little light on the other side
Spare me the critics and Dow Jones,
The news is a whole lot better on this side of the radio
