AM Radio

KHJ Los Angeles
Portions of the day's programming
Are reproduced by means of electrical transcriptions or tape recordings

You could hear the music on the AM Radio
(AM Radio)

The VCR and the DVD
There wasn't none of that crap back in 1970
We didn't know about a World Wide Web
Was a whole different game being played back when I was a kid

Wanna get down in a cool way?
Picture yourself on a beautiful day
Big bell bottoms and groovy long hair
Just a walking in style with a portable CD player

No, you would listen to the music on the AM Radio
(AM Radio, AM Radio)
Yeah, you could hear the music on the AM Radio
(AM Radio, AM Radio)

Flashback to '72
Another summer in the neighborhood
Hanging out with nothing to do
Sometimes we'd go driving around
In my sister's Pinto
Cruisin' with the windows rolled down

We'd listen to the radio station
We were too damn poor to buy the 8 track tapes
There wasn't any good time to want to be inside
My mom would want to watch that TV all goddamn night

I'd be in bed with the radio on
I would listen to it all night long
Just to hear my favorite song

You'd have to wait but you could hear it on the AM Radio
(AM Radio, AM Radio)
Yeah, you could hear the music on the AM Radio
(AM Radio)
(I can still hear mama say: "Boy, turn that radio down")

Aw mom, not that show again
I don't want to watch that show
Can't we watch Good Times or Chico and The Man
Or something cool?
Turn it off! (Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off)

Things changed back in '75
We were all growing up on the in and the outside
We got in trouble with the police man
We got busted getting high in the back of my friend's van

I remember in 1977
I started going to concerts and I saw the Led Zeppelin
I got a guitar on a Christmas day
I dreamed that Jimmy Page would come to Santa Monica and teach me to play
(Play!)
(Teach me to play!)
(Play!)
(Teach me to play!)
(Play!)
(Play, play, play, yeah, yeah)

There isn't any place that I need to go
There isn't anything that I need to know
That I did not learn from the radio

Yeah, when things get stupid
And I just don't know where to find my happy
I listen to the music on the AM Radio (AM Radio)

You could hear the music on the AM Radio (AM Radio)
