Glen Burtnick: Heard it on the radio [lyrics]

Glen Burtnick

Heard it on the radio

Heard it on the radio

Small town girl full of big time dreams

She had a plan, boy, she had a scheme

Fast Talking Johnny put the stars in her eyes

Tears at the airport waving goodbye

Now look what happened, I can't believe it's true

Everywhere I go they're talk talk talking 'bout you and I

I heard it on the radio

I wasn't ready, I didn't know until

I heard it on the radio

They said your name, it must be so

One by one and two by two

Doors opened easy, she walked right through

Word got around about the new face in town

She blew her horn and the walls came down

The television, the nightly news

Everywhere I go they're talk talk talking 'bout you

I heard it on the radio

I wasn't ready, I didn't know until

I heard it on the radio

They said your name, it must be so

She took the world and held it in her hand

You just can't help it when the good goes bad

She got what she wanted but she lost what she had

On the magazine cover she looks so fine

But I can remember when she used to be mine

And I heard it on the radio

Don't wanna hear it, don't wanna know

'Cause I heard it on the radio
