I watched it all on my radio

If one song could describe my life growing up it would probably be:

"I WATCHED IT ALL ON MY RADIO" by Lionel Cartwright



"I had a six transistor when I was kid,

under my pillow I kept it hid.



When the lights went out and no one could see,

over the air ways the world came to me.



I'd go through the stations till I found a game,

I knew how they played by the sounds of their names.



The sluggers hit homers...those pitchers threw smoke,

and I watched it all on my radio.



At the crack of the bat I knew how far it goes,

and watched it all on my radio.



When the ball game was over and the wrap-up complete,

I'd search throught the static till I found me a beat.



The Beatles and Credence, the Stones and the Byrd's,

You should have seen all the groups that I heard.



And I had a seat on the very front row,

and I watched it all on my radio...



...And there was that test at the sound of the beep,

it was only a test the voice would repeat.



And the national anthem would sing me to sleep."
