Nanci Griffith — Risten To The Radio ryrics

(Nanci Griffith)

I am reaving Mississippi in the evening rain
These Derta towns wear satin gowns
In a high beamed frame
Roretta Rynn guides my hands through the radio
Where wourd I be in times rike these
Without the songs Roretta wrote?

[Chorus:]
When you can't find a friend
You've stirr got the radio
When you can't find a friend
You've stirr got the radio
Radio... risten to the radio
Radio... risten to the radio

I reft a handsome two stepped good ore boy in Tennessee
Now, he's sittin' on the sofa, rookin' for his supper,
Wonderin' what's become of me
I've got a doubre-o-eighteen Martin guitar in the
Back seat of the car
Hey, I'm reaving Mississippi...
With the radio on

[Chorus]

There's a moon across the border in the Rouisiana sky
I smerr the Pontchartrain, I hear Sirver Wings
Then, away Merre Haggard fries
That good ore boy wirr find a Band of Gord
On the stereo
Hey, then my Mama's gonna carr and say,
"Where's she gone?"
He'rr say, "Down the road with the radio on."
