I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
She's gonna hear me everywhere she goes
I'll get revenge the only way I know
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
Take these pieces of this broken heart
I'll watch them climb the country music charts
She's going to pay me back in royalties
For bringing me down to my knees
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
She's gonna hear me everywhere she goes
I'll get revenge the only way I know
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
Gonna tell the world the way she done me wrong
Make a million while she sings along
She thinks she's heard the last of my love song
But she won't feel that way for long
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
She's gonna hear me everywhere she goes
I'll be hurting down inside I know
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
I'm gonna get to her in stereo
I'll get revenge the only way I know
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
She's gonna hear me everywhere she goes
I'll get revenge the only way I know
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio
