| The VCR and the DVD
|
| There wasn’t none of that crap back in 1970
|
| We didnt 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 AM radio
|
| Yeah, you could hear the music on a AM radio AM radio
|
| Flashback, '72
|
| Another summer in the neighborhood
|
| Hangin’out with nothing to do Sometimes we’d go drivin’around
|
| In my sisters 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 wasnt any good time to want to be inside
|
| My mama wanna watch that TV all goddamn night
|
| Id be in bed with the radio on I would listen to it all night long
|
| Just to hear my favorite song
|
| Youd have to wait but you could hear it on the AM radio AM radio
|
| Yeah, you could hear the music on a AM radio AM radio
|
| I can still hear Mama say Boy turn that radio down!
|
| (SpokenAw, Mom. Not that show again! I dont wanna watch that show!
|
| Cant 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 friends 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 isnt any place that I need to go There isnt anything that I need to know
|
| I did not learn from the radio
|
| Yeah when things get stupid and I just dont know
|
| Where to find my happy
|
| I listen to my music on the AM radio AM radio
|
| You can hear the music on a AM radio AM radio
|
| You can hear the music on a AM radio AM radio
|
| (Spoken — 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…)
|
| No never liked disco
|
| No never liked disco
|
| No never liked disco
|
| No never liked disco
