When the ballgame was over, the rap-up complete
I'd search through the static 'till i found a beat
The Beatles and Createns, the Stones and the Birds

And on Saturday night when the skies were all clear
a station from Nashville sometimes would appear
The steel guitars and soft southern twang
The stars of the Grand Ole Opery would sing

And I watched it all on my radio
I watched it all on my radio

To tell me what's right; To tell me what's wrong

E B A
And the National Anthem would sing me to sleep
