"I Got Radio" lyrics - JIM MESSINA

My radio's playing as I sit here and wait
It's nearly nine and she was due around 8:00
I'm all dressed up and I've no place to go
I'll look so stupid if that girl don't show.

I sit here listenin' to my favourite songs
I wonder what's taking that girl so long
I told my friends that I would bring her around
If I get stood up there'll be no livin' it down.

It's so frustrating but I'm not alone
At least I got a friend to pass the time
If it weren't for this station I'd go out of my mind.

Without my radio playin' songs that I know
I got my radio wherever I go
I've got radio.

The digital clock on my radio says
In a few more hours this night will be dead
Hey Mr. DJ, won't you hear my plea?
Take my request and tell that girl for me?

It's so frustrating but I'm not alone
At least I got a friend while I'm waiting to go
I got the N°1 station playin' songs that I know.

On my radio I'm in tune with the times
Without radio I'd go out of my mind
I've got my radio and no one can take it away.

The digital clock on my radio says
In a few more hours this night will be dead
Hey Mr. DJ, won't you hear my plea?
Take my request and tell that girl for me?

It's so frustrating but I'm not alone
I'm waiting.

I got my radio (playin' songs that I know)
I got radio (wherever I go)
I got my radio and no one can take it away.

I've got radio (I'm in tune with the times)
Without my radio (I'd go out of my mind)
I've got radio and no one can take it away.
