Hello honey, it's me
|
What did you think when you heard me back on the radio?
|
What did the kids say when they knew
|
It was their long lost daddy-o?
|
|
Remember how we listened to the radio
|
And I said "That's the place to be"
|
And how I got the job as an FM jock
|
The day you married me?
|
|
We were two kids and I was was into AM rock
|
But I just had to run around
|
It's been eight years since I'd left you babe
|
Let me tell you 'bout what's gone down
|
|
I am the mornin' DJ on W O L D
|
Playin' all the hits for you wherever you may be
|
The bright good-mornin' voice who's heard but never seen
|
Feelin' all of forty-five goin' on fifteen
|
|
The drinkin' I did on my last big gig
|
You made my voice go low
|
They said that they liked the younger sound
|
When they let me go
|
|
So I drifted on down to Tulsa, Oklahoma
|
To do me a late night talk show
|
Now I worked my way down home again, via Boise, Idhao
|
That's how this business goes
|
|
Well I am the mornin' DJ on W O L D
|
Playin' all the hits for you wherever you may be
|
The bright good-mornin' voice who's heard but never seen
|
If you keep on singing on alone like that
|
You're gonna turn the little girls off
|
|
I've been making extra money to a high school sock hops
|
I'm a big time guest MC
|
You should hear me talking to the little children
|
And listen what they say to me
|
|
The spot on the top of my head
|
Just begging for a new toupee
|
And a tire on my gut from sittin' on my
|
But it's never gonna go away, stay children
|
|
Sometimes I get this crazy dream
|
That I just take off in my car
|
When you can travel on ten thousand miles
|
And still say where you are
|
|
I've been thinking that I should stop disk jockeying
|
And start that record store
|
Maybe I could settle down
|
If you'd take me back once more
|
|
Ok honey, I see
|
I guess he's better than me
|
Sure, old girl, I understand
|
You don't have to worry, I'm such a happy man
|
|
W O L D
|
W O L D
|
W O L D
|
W O L D D D
|
|
I am the mornin' DJ on W K T
|
Playin' disco pushship and you know what you can do
|
The bright good mornin' voice who's heard but never seen
|
Feeling all of forty-five, goin' on fifteen
|
How's that?
|
I am the mornin' DJ at W O L D
|
