Stonewall Jackson - B J The D J Lyrics

A story bout a pal of mine who worked down near the Georgia Line

A DJ in a little country station



Everybody loved him dear cause he played what they liked to hear

He built himself a quite a reputation



At record hops he stayed out late and his mom would always wait

To see if he had made it home alive



She warned against his loss of sleep and driving fast in that old heap

And that he had to be at work by five.



BJ the DJ you're living much too fast

And if you don't change your ways don't see how you can last.



Every morning just past four from the driveway he would roar

Overslept and he was late again.



Then at breakneck speed he'd drive to sign the station on at five

He had lots of records he must spin.



His mom said by the radio until his voice told her hello

She knew then that he made it there alright



Then she'd say a little prayer, giving thanks that he was there. And she'd wait up for him again tonight



Then one cold and rainy morn all the tires were badly worn

But still he screeched off just as fast this time.



BJ had a lot of nerve but he completely missed the curve

And he signed off down near the Georgia Line



Mom sat by the radio the voice she heard she didn't know

BJ'd never been this late before



But with the road so bad and all she'd wait a while before she called

And then she heard the knock upon the door



BJ the DJ only twenty four a wreck at ninety miles an hour he'll spin the discs no more.
