AM Radio Lyrics

    '~KHJ Los Angeles!~ Portions of the day's programming are reproduced by means of
    electrical transcriptions or tape recordings.'

    You can hear the music on the 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
    It 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 walkin' in style with a portable CD player
    No, you would listen to the music on the AM radio
    Yeah, you could hear the music on a AM radio

    Flashback, '72
    Another summer in the neighborhood
    Hangin' out with nothing to do
    Sometmes we'd go drivin' around
    In my sister's Pinto
    Cruisin' with the windows rolled down
    We'd listen to the radio station
    We were too damn cool to buy the eight track tapes
    There wasn't any good time to want to be inside
    My mama wanna 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
    Yeah, you could hear the music on a AM radio
    I can still hear Mama say ¡°Boy turn that radio down!'

    ¡°Aw, Mom. Not that show again! I don't wanna watch that show! Can't we watch Good Times
    or Chico and the Man or something cool? 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 gettin' high in the back of my friend's van

    I remember 1977
    I started going to concerts and I saw the Led Zeppelin
    I got a guitar on Christmas day
    I dreamed that Jimmy Page would come from Santa Monica and teach me to play
    Teach me to play...

    There isn't any place that I need to go
    There isn't anything that I need to know
    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 my music on the AM radio
    You can hear the music on a AM radio
    You can hear the music on a AM radio

    I like pop, I like soul, I like rock, but I never liked disco
    I like pop, I like soul, I like rock, but I never liked disco
    We like pop, we like soul, we like rock, but we never liked disco...

    No I never liked disco...
