Wikipedia:
Joni Mitchell originally wrote the song in response to her record label’s desire for her to write a hit song. The song was recorded in preparation for Mitchell’s then-upcoming fifth studio album, For the Roses. Although Graham Nash, David Crosby and Neil Young all contributed to the recording session for the song, only the harmonica piece performed by Graham Nash was included on the official release.
Record World said it has a “sensational lyric” and that “Ms. Mitchell again captures love in her unique fashion.”

Lyrics:
Oh, honey, you turn me on, I’m a radio
I’m a country station, I’m a little bit corny
I’m a wildwood flower waving for you
Broadcasting tower waving for you
