I be on the hotline like everyday Making sure the DJ know what I want him to play You know I got my top back and my beat low Rocking my stunner shades and turning up my radio Turn up my 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 Whenever I hear that sound Whenever I hear that sound You're the only 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 of my window (Under the moonlight) And he'd be keeping me close, 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 Whenever I hear that sound Whenever I hear that sound Whenever I hear that sound When I get into my car, I turn it up Then I hear vibrations all up in my trunk And the bass line be rattling through my seats Then that crazy feeling starts happening oh I get butterflies when I hear the DJ (Playing the stuff I like) And I fall deeper in love with every song he plays He's got a place in my heart I think I'm in love with my radio (with my radio) 'Cause it never lets me down (no no no no no) And I fall in love with my stereo (with my stereo) Whenever I hear that sound Whenever I hear that sound Whenever I hear that sound I be on the hotline like everyday Making sure the DJ know what I want him to play You know I got my top back and my beat low Rocking my stunner shades and turning up my radio Turn up my 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 Whenever I hear that sound Whenever I hear that sound
