Warren Zevon — Mohammed’s Radio Live 1980

[Verse 1] Everybody's restless and they got no place to go And someone's always tryin' to tell them something they already know So their anger and resentment flow [Chorus] Don't it make you wanna rock and roll? All night long, Mohammed's radio I heard somebody singin' sweet and soulful On the radio, Mohammed's radio [Verse 2] Ayatollah's got his problems too (What if I cry, baby?) And even Jimmy Carter's got the highway blues (Turnin' at you) I went to see the Governor 'cause I thought that he would know You see I knew him, been up all night listening to Mohammed's radio [Chorus] Don't it make you wanna rock and roll? All night long, Mohammed's radio I heard somebody singin' sweet and soulful On the radio, Mohammed's radio [Bridge] Everybody's desperate, tryin' to make ends meet They work all day, they still can't pay the price of gasoline and meat Alas, their lives are incomplete [Chorus] Don't it make you wanna rock and roll? All night long, Mohammed's radio I heard somebody singin' sweet and soulful On the radio, Mohammed's radio [Verse 3] You've been up all night listenin' for his drum (Up all night) Hoping that the righteous might just, might just, might just come (Just ain't right) But I heard the general whisperin' to his aide de camp "Be watchful for Mohammed's lamp" [Chorus] Don't it make you wanna rock and roll? All night long, Mohammed's radio I heard somebody singin' sweet and soulful On the radio, Mohammed's radio Mohammed's radio [Outro] Thank you
