"I Watched It All (On My Radio)" by Lionel Cartwright and Don Schlitz

I had a six transistor when I was a kid. Under my pillow, I kept it hid. When the lights went out and no one could see. Over the airwaves the world came to me.

I'd go through the stations 'til I found a game. I knew how they played by the sounds of their names. The sluggers hit homers, those pitchers threw smoke. And I watched it all on my radio.

At the crack of the bat I knew how far it'd go. And I watched it all on my radio. I watched it all on my radio.

When the ballgame was over, the wrap-up complete, I'd search through the static 'til I found a beat. The Beatles and Creedence, the Stones and the Byrds; You should have seen all the groups that I heard.

And on Saturday night when the skies were all clear, A station from Nashville sometimes would appear. With steel guitars and soft Southern twang, The stars of the Grand Ole Opry would sing.

And I had a seat on the very front row. And I watched it all on my radio. I watched it all on my radio.

And 'round about midnight, some preacher came on, To tell me what's right, to tell me what's wrong. And there was a test at the sound of the beep. It was only a test, the voice would repeat. And the national anthem would sing me to sleep.

I had a six transistor when I was a kid. Under my pillow, I kept it hid. When the lights went out and no one could see. Over the airwaves the world came to me.

And I had a seat on the very front row. And I watched it all on my radio. I watched it all on my radio.
