The VCR and the DVD - there wasn't none of that crap back in 1970

We didn't know about a World Wide Web
G# A# G#
Was a whole different game being played back when I was a kid

Wanna get down in a cool way?
G# A# G#
Picture yourself on a beautiful day

Big Bell Bottoms and groovy, long hair

Just a-walking in style with a portable BD player - No!

Flashback to '72
G# A# G#
Another summer in the neighborhood, hanging out with nothing to do
D# G#
Sometimes we'd go driving around in my sister's Pinto
A# G# D#
Cruising with the windows rolled down
G#
We'd listen to the radio station - we were too damn poor
A# G#
to buy the 8-track tape
D#
It wasn't then a good time to want to be inside
G# A# Cm
My momma want to watch that TV all goddamn night
Fm
I'd be in bed with the radio on
G# A#
I would listen to it all night long just to hear my favorite song
D#
You'd have to wait but you could hear it on the G#M Radio
[Chorus]
G# A# G# D#
Yeah, you could hear the music on the G#M Radio
G# A# G# D#
I can still hear momma say, "Boy, turn that radio down!"
G#
Aww, mom, not that show again!
A# G# D#
I don't wanna watch that show
G# A# G#
Can't we watch Good Times or Chico And The Man or something cool?
A#
Turn it off!
[Verse]

Things changed back in '75
G# A# G#
We were all growing up on the in and the outside
D#
We got in trouble with the police man
G# A# G#
We got busted getting high in the back of my friend's van
D#
I remember 1977
G# A# G#
I started going to concerts and I saw the Led Zeppelin
D#
I got a guitar on Christmas day
G# A# Cm
I dreamed that Jimmy Page would come to Santa Monica and teach me to play
Fm
Teach me to play
G#
Teach me to play
Cm Fm
There isn't any place that I need to go
G# A#
There isn't anything that I need to know I did not learn from the radio
