1956   When the DJ broke to play us something new   Hearts broke, hearts skipped   And we knew that this was made for me and you   When he told us he was lonely   He was speaking from the heart      I was much too young to know him   But I knew it was the start   I was raised on the radio, raised on the radio   Just an all American boy who found his favorite toy      Michelle, lady Jane   Yeah, I fell in love with girls I never met   I learned to play guitar   While the other boys where busy learning math   But all the simplest equations never add up very far      When all my musical persuasions   Kept me reaching for the stars, raised on the radio   Just an all American boy, I got my favorite toy      Remembering when times were bad   Love is all we need and love was all we had   1964   When the DJ broke to play us something new
