Lyrics
Mama Left The Radio On
What troubles mom and daddy had I never really knew
Cause I had a big old radio sittin in my room
When the bank would call my mom would walk across our little home
Back to my room then she?d stoop down and turn the radio on
Chorus:
Mama left the radio on
Mama left the radio on
Never knew trouble at home cause
Mama left the radio on
Well daddy?d get to drinkin and he?d get in a way
I know he didn?t mean the things that liquor made him say
Now when I get to see him it?s thru glass and with a phone
I never knew the things he?d do cause Mama left the radio on
Chorus:
Bridge:
I?d fall to sleep
havin blue grass dreams
Break
Now here I am I?m on a bus with my name on the front
Take it from me you can see the magic music does
I?m on the road another town these wheels are rollin on
It?s all because my mama thought to come and turn the radio on
Chorus: (repeat twice)
Mama left the radio on
Mama left the radio on
Never knew trouble at home cause
Mama left the radio on
