Intro:
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
VERSE CHORDS
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
BRIDGE
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
REPEAT INTRO
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
CHORUS CHORDS
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*DÂ
