I got somethin' on my mind, I'm just a little bit depressed

I try to blame it on the rain but it was in my heart, I guess

I'm feelin' like a stranger when I drove through my hometown

Past the sign that reads 'The Boyhood Home

Of a Place That's Long Gone Now'

I realized ain't nothin' what it used to be

Until I heard a song that takes me to my memories

Radio saved my life tonight

Old song that that DJ played made me feel alright

I made it home by my dashboard light

The radio saved my life tonight

Just this side of mornin', just this side of dawn

I walked so soft into my bedroom, saw my wife sleepin' alone

She whispered, "Baby, are you okay, have you been gone for long?"

I just kicked off my jeans and held her close, I held her all night long

I tried to sleep but in my mind I heard that song

Like a friend in need, the melody keeps me hangin' on

Radio saved my life tonight

Old song that that DJ played made me feel alright

I made it home by my dashboard light

Radio saved my life tonight

The radio saved my life tonight

The sad song that the DJ played made me feel alright

As I drove down that lonesome highway just me and my dashboard light

The radio saved my life tonight

Radio saved my life tonight

Old song that that DJ played made me feel alright

I made it home by my dashboard light

The radio saved my life tonight

The radio saved my life tonight

The radio saved my life tonight

The radio saved my life tonight

The radio saved my life tonight

The radio saved my life tonight
