                       C5C5maj9
I called up lucky on the telephone
        F5F5maj9           D5  
asked old lucky whats been going on
C5got a mess of the D5blues that you wouldn't G5believe
                     C5C5maj9
seems like everytime i turn around
F5-F5maj9            D5  
somebody's trying to knock me down
C5dont have any tD5ricks left up my G5sleeve
C5I said lucky that D5ain't nothin new
Fiv'e been having me a Ghard time to
C5i know what you're D5going through
and it's a Fmighty heavy Gload
C5can't help but think of D5one fine day
Fthis stone is gonna Groll away
C5you'll be a song writing D5hemingway
and we'll be lFistening to the Gskyline raC5dio
This is way to small of a town
to be able to keep any secrets down
everybody knows your business before you do
won't believe some of the things i hear
about some of the fine folks that live around hear
everything from wife swappin', drug rings, and practicing voodoo
Grab your hat, get in line
hurry up don't you waste no time
step on over right this way 
if you want to see the show
we'll help you out fix you up
mend your fence and fill your cup
don't need nothing till you check your local listings
for the skyline radio
Just this morning heard the president say
he came up with a plan thats gonna save the day
but it was hung up in commitee up on capitol hill
different singer but the song is the same
he knows right where to lay that blame
always been that way and its that way still
Traffic fines, zodiak signs
everybody's dialing up the psychic line
profit maximozation is the ultimate goal dont you know
food stamps, prison camps
girls get away with murder due to menstral cramps
instant gratification of remote control
and the skyline radio
Someday i'm gonna take that ride
i wanna have you darlin' by my side
you be bonnie and i'll be clyde
with no particular place to go
we hit the key and let the motor run
talk about it in the morning sun
be the best thing we ever done, you and me,
and the skyline radio
