Mohammed S Radio Stand In The Fire Version lyrics

(Warren Zevon)
Everybody`s restless and they`ve got no place to go
Someone`s always trying to tell them
Something they already know
So their anger and resentment flow

But don`t it make you want to rock and roll
All night long
Mohammed`s Radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio, Mohammed`s Radio

Ayatollah`s got his problems too
And even Jimmy Carter`s got the highway blues
I went to see the Governor `cause I thought that he would know
(you see I knew him)
He`s been up all night listening to Mohammed`s Radio

Don`t it make you want to rock and roll
All night long Mohammed`s Radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio, Mohammed`s Radio

Everybody`s desperate trying to make ends meet
Work all day, still can`t pay the price of gasoline and meat
Alas, their lives are incomplete

Don`t it make you want to rock and roll
All night long Mohammed`s Radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio, Mohammed`s Radio

You`ve been up all night listening for his drum
Hoping that the righteous might just might just might just come
I heard the General whisper to his aide-de-camp
`Be watchful for Mohammed`s lamp`

Don`t it make you want to rock and roll
All night long
Mohammed`s Radio
