Testo W*O*L*D* - Harry Chapin

Testo della canzone W*O*L*D* (Harry Chapin), tratta dall'album The Gold Medal Collection

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? Oh
Remember how we listened to the radio
And I said, "That's the place to be"
And how I got the job as an FM jock
The day you married me?
It was two kids, and I was in the 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
I am the mornin' DJ at W-O-L-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D (O-L-D)
Playin' all the hits for you wherever you may be
The bright good mornin' voice, who's heard but never seen
Feelin' all of 45 goin' on 15
The drinkin' I did on my last big gig
It made my voice go low
They said that they liked the younger sound
(Sound, sound, sound) when they let me go
So I drifted on down to Tulsa, Oklahoma
To do me a late-night talk show
Now I've worked my way down home again
Here to Boise, Idaho
That's how this business goes
I am the mornin' DJ at W-O-L-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D (O-L-D)
Playin' all the hits for you wherever you may be
The bright good mornin' voice, who's heard but never seen
Feelin' all of 45 goin' on 15
I'm makin' extra money doin' high school sock hops
I'm a big-time guest emcee
You should hear me talkin' to the little children
And listen what they say to me
I got a spot on the top of my head
Just beggin' for a new toupee
There's a tire around my gut from sittin' on my -
But it's never gonna go away
Sometimes I get this crazy dream
That I just take off in my car
But you can travel on ten thousand miles
And still stay where you are
Thinkin' that I should stop disk jockin'
And start that record store
Maybe I could settle down
If you'd take me back once more
Okay, 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-D)
(W-O-L-D)
I am the mornin' DJ at W-O-L-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D (O-L-D)
Playin' all the hits for you wherever you may be
The bright good mornin' voice, who's heard but never seen
Feelin' all of 45 goin' on 15
I am the mornin' DJ at W-O-L-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D (O-L-D)
W-O-L-D (O-L-D) D-D-D-D-D-D-D (O-L-D)
W-O-L-D (O-L-D) D-D-D-D-D-D-D (O-L-D)
W-O-L-D (O-L-D) D-D-D-D-D-D-D (O-L-D)
W-O-L-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D
