Big Sister's Radio

歌詞

It was hangin in the corner like a candy ball and chain It was nothin she ever thought about Didn’t know it was gone the day she moved out In my hand if I pointed it just right You otta heard what come to me at night On that little transistor, my big sister’s radio It couldn’t hold a candle to a mighty stereo Only had one speaker, only had one dial Man that radio used to make me smile So many DJ’s from so far away You otta heard the records they would play On that little transistor, my big sister’s radio My big sister’s transistor radio Had a song for my heart and a song for my soul One for my heartaches and one for my tears And a song was music to that young boys ear Memphis and New Orleans, only half a turn away Nine hundred miles turnin that dial and the music would start to play I heard that old soul rock and roll, rhythm and blues Man I didn’t know what I was getting into On that little transistor, my big sister’s radio My big sister’s transistor radio Had a song for my heart and a song for my soul On for my heartaches and one for my tears And a song was music to a young boys ears Now that I’m grown I long for those nights In the corner by the bedroom light Laughin’ and a singin’, dancin’ in my drawers Spinin’ that dial till my fingers got sore All of those DJ’s I wished I could call Lookin’ back I know I owe it all To that little transistor, my big sister’s radio
