Story Behind The Song

The lyrics say it all.

Song Description

Sometimes It's difficult to listen to the Radio anymore. Too much talk and too many songs by TV stars.

Lyrics

Years ago I had a little radio
And I'd take my radio everywhere that I'd go
And I loved what they played on my little radio
But they bought and sold it
Took over, controled it
So all you hear is solid gold

You could hear the world on the radio
From the A side, to the B side, to the seasides it was a go
Something new, something old always on the radio
But they've got a play list
They got to say this
So all you hear is solid gold

Well they want to sell you shirts and shoes
East coast, West coast you've got to choose
When it all sounds the same, there's no money to lose
On the Radio

Well you've got to look good to be heard on the radio
Tight pants and attitude, that's what's on the radio
Sometimes I think I'm listening to a TV show
But if the stray, no one gets paid
So all you'll know is solid gold

Well I don't care what's on the radio
I heard all those songs before just an hour ago
And I don't want your shirts and shoes
Keep your golden attitude
You turned me off with the same old tunes
On your little radio

Years ago I had a little radio
And I'd take my radio everywhere that I'd go
And I loved what they played on my little radio
But the bought and sold it
Took over controled it
So all you hear is solid gold

They've got my little radio
They bought my little radio
They got my little radio
Oh NO!
