KFWR is a Country music FM radio station in the Dallas/Fort Worth area in Texas, transmitting on 95.9 FM. This station is owned and operated by LKCM Radio Group.

The station first started out as KMWT in 1970, with an unknown format, then in 1981, the call letters were changed to KYXS as a Country station. In 2002, the station made its permanent switch to KFWR, bringing listeners a country radio station with a blend of Texas County, current country hits, and country classics. After being ignored by other radio stations in the area, KFWR focused intently on the area west of the Tarrant-Dallas county line.

95.9 The Ranch also brings its listeners a free concert series featuring the best artists in Texas Country for 25 weeks every summer in downtown Fort Worth.

The Ranch radio format can also be heard on KRVF, 106.9, Corsicana, Texas, and KRVA-FM, 107.1, Sulphur Springs, Texas.
