There was a young man from Memphis
Who made a little history
The joy he'd bring, the words he'd sing
I'd swear that he was talkin' to me
Bless my soul, how he let me know
About highschool on the dial
Got my education, turnin' up the station
Learning' while I had fun CHORUS:
"I'm takin' radio, radio,
I'm takin' Radio 101
Radio, I'm takin' radio
I'm takin' Radio 101"

NYC to Boston
Philadelphia to Frisco Bay
I'm takin'Motown, hoedown
Alabama, James Brown
Getting straight USA's
Got my PhD, I do the harmonies
I learn them'til the day is done

REPEAT CHORUS

Well, I learned about love
Learned about life
Comin' in clear, in the big night sky
Taught me everything that I needed to know
Learnin' while I had fun

REPEAT CHORUS

Got my education, turnin' up the station
Learnin' while I had fun
All across the nation, everybody takin' Radio, etc.
