I remember when I was just a kid
Doctors told me I got a disease that's gonna keep me sick
Sometimes I'd get so damn depressed
I didn't feel like getting myself dressed
But when I turned the radio on
And I heard my favorite song
I'd say
[Chorus]
Play me good time music
Help to get me through my day
Play me good time music
Songs that take me, won't you take me, far away
I remember I got my first guitar
Told everyone I was going to be a rock '' roll star
The first time I got my heart broke
I remember the feeling I got in my throat
I felt like dyin' that night
Seemed like the radio saved my life
I'd say
[Chorus]
We were drivin' by the light of the moon
Makin' love to our favorite tunes
The best days I ever had were nights I spent with you
We didn't have a penny and not a care in the world
I'll be your man, you be my girl
Such simpler times in a complex world
[Chorus: x2]
