There's lonely hearts in Arkansas
There's truckers in Des Moines
All there to keep me company in the early morn
A world unknown to daytime
Is forever going on
The airways of the nation
Between midnight and the dawnLate night radio
Take it everywhere I go
Best friend when I'm lonely
Is my late night radioWell I turn the dial
A little bit past one-o-one point two
In time to catch the news
And see who's shooting who
Then I hunt around for old songs
They're so good to hear again
To think of how it was
Imagine how it might have beenLate night radio
Take it everywhere I go
Best friend when I'm lonely
Is my late night radioLa La La I sing along
'Cause I never know the words
La La La La La La La La La
I'd love to call a talk show
But I haven't got the nerve
La La La Oh Oh Oh radioThe Lord is still my shepherd
But these preachers got to go
This time of night my interest
Lies in U.F.O.'s
So I turn the dial a little
Past fifty-six point three
To find myself a lullaby
To rock me off to sleepLate night radio
Take it everywhere I go
Best friend when I'm lonely
Is my late night radioLate night radio
Take it everywhere I go
Best friend when I'm lonely
Is my late night radio
