W*O*L*D*

W.O.L.D. - Harry Chapin

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 into AM rock

But I just had to run around

It's been eight years since I'd left you babe

Let me tell you about what's gone down

I am the morning DJ at 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

You 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

Down home again via Boise Idhao

That's how this business goes

I am the morning DJ at 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

I've been making extra money

To a 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

I got the spot on the top of my head

Just begging for a new toupee

And a tire on my gut from sitting 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

I've been thinking

That I should stop disk jockeying

And start that record store

Maybe I could settle down

If you'd 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
