harry chapin – w.o.l.d. (live) lyrics

[spoken]
i have, uh, trouble getting my songs on the radio ’cause they’re too long. but this is a song that snuck on for, on the charts for about fifteen minutes.

[verse 1]
h+llo, 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 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 left you, babe
let me tеll you ’bout what’s gone down

[chorus]
i am the morning dj at wold+d+d+d+d+d+d (o.l.d.)
playing all the hits for you
whеrever you may be
the bright good morning voice
who’s heard but never seen
oh, feeling all of forty+give going on fifteen

[verse 2]
the drinking i did on my last big gig
it made my voice go low
they said that they like the young sounds
(sounds, sounds, sounds)
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
[chorus]
i am the morning dj at wold+d+d+d+d+d+d (o.l.d.)
playing all the hits for you
wherever you may be
the bright good morning voice
who’s heard but never seen
oh, feeling all of forty+five going on fifteen
tom, you want to sing me the bridge? “extra money…”

[bridge]
i’ve been making extra money doing high school sock hops
i’m the 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
just begging for a new toupee
and a tire around my gut from sitting on my
but it’s never gonna go away

[verse 3]
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 disc jocking
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
[pre+chorus]
(wold)
wold
(wold)
wold
(wold)
wol
wold+d+d

[chorus]
i am the morning dj at khj+j+j+j+j+j+j (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
oh, feeling all of forty+five going on fifteen
i am the morning dj at wold+d+d+d+d
