Big Sister's Radio Lyrics

It was hangin in the corner like a candy ball and chain
It was nothin she ever thought about
Didn’t know it was gone the day she moved out
In my hand if I pointed it just right
You otta heard what come to me at night
On that little transistor, my big sister’s radio

It couldn’t hold a candle to a mighty stereo
Only had one speaker, only had one dial
Man that radio used to make me smile
So many DJ’s from so far away
You otta heard the records they would play
On that little transistor, my big sister’s radio

My big sister’s transistor radio
Had a song for my heart and a song for my soul
One for my heartaches and one for my tears
And a song was music to that young boys ear
Memphis and New Orleans, only half a turn away Nine hundred miles turnin that dial and the music would
start to play
I heard that old soul rock and roll, rhythm and blues
Man I didn’t know what I was getting into
On that little transistor, my big sister’s radio

My big sister’s transistor radio
Had a song for my heart and a song for my soul
On for my heartaches and one for my tears
And a song was music to a young boys ears
Now that I’m grown I long for those nights
In the corner by the bedroom light
Laughin’ and a singin’, dancin’ in my drawers
Spinin’ that dial till my fingers got sore
All of those DJ’s I wished I could call
Lookin’ back I know I owe it all
To that little transistor, my big sister’s radio
