Listen To The Radio Lyrics - Storms - Nanci Griffith

I am leaving Mississippi in the evening rain 

These Delta towns wear satin gowns 

In a high beamed frame 

Loretta Lynn guides my hands through the radio 

Where would I be in times like these 

Without the songs Loretta wrote? 

'Cause when you can't find a friend 

You've still got the radio 

When you can't find a friend 

You've still got the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

Radio 

I left a handsome, two stepped 

Good ole boy in Tennessee 

Now, he's sittin' on the sofa, he's lookin' for his supper 

Wonderin', "What's become of me?" 

I've got a double-o-eighteen Martin guitar in the 

Back seat of the car 

Hey, I'm leaving Mississippi 

With the radio on 

'Cause when you can't find a friend 

You've still got the radio 

When you can't find a friend 

You've still got the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

It's the radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

There's a moon across the border 

In the Louisiana sky 

I smell the Pontchartrain, I hear Silver Wings 

And then, away Merle Haggard had to fly 

That good ole boy will find a Band of Gold on the stereo 

Hey, then my Mama's gonna call and say 

Where's she gone? 

He'll say, "Down the road with the radio on" 

When you can't find a friend 

You've still got the radio 

And when you can't find a friend 

You've still got the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Now listen to the radio 

The radio 

[Incomprehensible] down the road 

[Incomprehensible] 

Radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio 

The radio 

Listen to the radio
