Harry Chapin Wold Lyrics

Wold Lyrics

Hello Honey, it's me
What did you think when you heard me back on the
radio?
What did the kids say when they knew it was their long lost
daddy-o?
Remember how we listened to the radio
And I said `That's the
place for me'
And how I got the job as an FM Jock the day you married
me?
We were two kids and I was was into AM rock
But I just had to run
around
It's been eight years since I left you babe
Let me tell you 'bout
what's gone down
CHORUS
I am the morning DJ on W*O*L*D
Playing all the
hits for you wherever you may be
The bright good-morning voice who's heard
but never seen
Feeling all of forty-five going on fifteen
The drinking I
did on my last big gig made my voice go low
They said that they liked the
younger sound when they let me go
So I drifted on down to Tulsa, Oklahoma to
do me a late night talk show
Now I worked my way back home again, via Boise,
Idhao
That's how this business goes
CHORUS
I've been making extra
money playing high school sock hops
I'm a big time guest MC
You should
hear me talking to the little children
And listen what they say to me
Got
a spot on the top of my head, begging for a new toupee
And a tire on my gut
from sitting on my
But they're never gonna go away
Sometimes I get this
crazy dream
That I just drive off in my car
But you can travel on ten
thousand miles and still say where you are
I've been thinking that I should
quit disk jockeying
And start that record store
Maybe I could settle down
if you'ld take me back once more
OK Honey, I see
I guess he's better than
me
Sure, Old Girl, I understand
You don't have to worry, I'm such a happy
man
W*O*L*D, W*O*L*D, W*O*L, W*O*L, W*O*L*D*D*D
I am the morning DJ on
K*H*J
Playing all the hits for you Playing them night and day
The bright
good morning voice who's heard but never seen
Feeling all of forty-five,
going on fifteen
I am the morning DJ on W*O*L*D
