Of electrical transcriptions or tape recordings} |
|
The V.C.R. and the D.V.D. |
|
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 |
|
You 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 C D player |
|
No, no, you would listen to the music on the AM radio |
|
Yeah, you could hear the music on the 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 god damn 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 the AM radio |
|
I can still hear mama say |
|
"Boy turn that radio down!" |
|
Oh mom that show again |
|
I don't wanna watch that show |
|
Can we watch good times and cheeku on the net |
|
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 getting 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 a Christmas day I dreamed that Jimmy Page |
|
Would come to Santa Monica and teach me to play |
|
There isn't any other 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 the music from the AM radio |
|
You could hear the music on the AM radio |
|
You could hear the music on the AM radio |
|
I like pop and I like soul |
|
I like rock but I never liked disco on the AM radio |
|
I like pop and I like soul |
|
I like rock but I never liked disco on the AM radio |
|
We like pop, we like soul, we like to rock |
|
But we never liked disco |
|
We like pop, we like soul, we like to rock |
|
But we never liked disco |
|
We like pop, we like soul, we like to rock |
|
But we never liked disco |
|
No we never liked disco |
|
No we never liked disco |
|
No we never liked disco |
