Magic Music Box

When I was ten I had a magic radio
I knew the words to all my favorite songs
I listened with it underneath my pillow
and all my friends would sing me all night long

It was me and ma but they were just like family
Buck and Marty, Dolly, Glen and Merle
And ma was worried how I stood by Tammy
Yeah Tammy was my very first best girl

She was gentle on my mind
Underneath my pillow
Pickin' up Tulsa time far away as Amarillo
I know Billie Jo's just layin' low
Down in the boondocks
It was more than just a radio
My magic music box

Oh I loved to tune it in to far away places
The static sounded like how spacemen talk
And I tried to picture how music could travel
Could fly into my magic music box

Oh and then one day I lost my magic radio
I kicked it running for the ice cream man
And momma said no big, I'll buy another
Oh momma momma you don't understand

She was gentle on my mind
Underneath my pillow
Pickin' up Tulsa time far away as Amarillo
I know Billie Jo's just layin' low
Down in the boondocks
It was more than just a radio
My magic music box
