Lyrics
[Verse 1]
KHJ Los Angeles
Portions of today's programming are reproduced
By means of electrical transcription or tape recordings
[Verse 2]
You could hear the music on the AM radio
[Verse 3]
The VCR and the DVD
There was 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 walking in style with a portable CD player
No you'd listen to the music on the
[Verse 4]
AM radio, AM radio
Yeah, you could hear the music on a
AM radio, AM radio
[Verse 5]
Flashback, '72
Another summer in the neighborhood
Hanging out with nothing to do
Sometimes we go driving around
In my sisters pinto
Cruising with the windows rolled down
We listen to the radio station
We were too damn cool to buy the eight track tape
There wasn't any good time to want to be inside
My mama want to watch that TV all goddamn night
[Verse 6]
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 'til you could hear it on the
[Verse 7]
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"
[Verse 8]
Ah, ma, 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
[Verse 9]
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 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 to Santa Monica
To teach me to play, to teach me to play
To teach me to play, to teach me to play
[Verse 10]
There isn't any place that I need to go
There isn't anything that I need to know
That I did not learn on the radio
[Verse 11]
Everything gets stupid and I just don't know
Where to find my happy, I listen to my music on the
AM radio, AM radio
You can hear the music on the
AM radio, AM radio
You can hear the music on the
[Verse 12]
I like pop, I like soul, I like rock, but I never liked disco (AM radio, AM radio)
I like pop, I like soul, I like rock, but I never liked disco (AM radio, AM radio)
We like pop, we like soul, we like rock, but we never liked disco (AM radio, AM radio)
We like pop, we like soul, we like rock, but we never liked disco (AM radio, AM radio)
We like pop, we like soul, we like rock, but we never liked disco (AM radio, AM radio)
(AM radio, AM radio) No, I never like disco
(AM radio, AM radio) No, I never like disco
(AM radio, AM radio) No, I never like disco
(AM radio, AM radio) No, I never like disco
