 She took a double-barrel  twelve gauge buckshot to her alarm  clock
 She'll kill  that George Strait "Baby Blue" with one  shot
 She was a cussin'  and a screamin' off the wrong side of the bed
 And madder  than hell with him in her head
 The whole trailer  park knew the radio  had done it again
 Ah, damn  that radio for playin' their song
Stirring  up a memory she thought was gone
 God knows  that old DJ don't know what he's done
 Ah, damn  that radio for playin' their song
 So she fired  up the Chevy and she tore it up and down the rural  route
Whitewalls  ripping on two wheels 'round the courthouse
 She was mad  at George and WKXY
 But she was  lookin' for the sucker who had left her to cry
 Everybody  in town was runnin'  for a place to hide
Down  at the station,  Lord, the phones  ring all day long
The  whole town calling  begging, "please  don't play that song!"
 Now the preacher  was preachin' in the spirit of jubilation
 To a sunny  day happy faced wedding congregation
 He read "til death  do us part" straight outta the word
 Then a Chevy  flew by and just flipped him the bird
 He said "Father  forgive her!" as the bride  ran shakin' her fist
Stirrin'  up a memory she thought was gone
 God knows  that old DJ don't know what he's done
 Ah, damn  that radio
Damn  that radio
Damn  that radio for playin' their song
 Or if you want to play the little riff at the end:

A|-2-0----2-|
E|-----3--0-|
 Top or bottom, either works.
