You better wake up, little Johnny

Better wake up real soon

The time has come now

For me and you

Spent those years dreaming

But the dreams didn't last

Time is moving much too fast

Turn the radio on

Well they built those factories

With blood, sweat and steel

Coming down fast under

The weight of the wheel

Hey, little Johnny

There ain't no room for you

Tell me, Johnny

Am I getting through?

(CHORUS)

Turn the radio on

With every beat of the drum

Then go out in the streets

With the voice of America's sons

There ain't no one today

Tonight someone will play

Out in the streets

Hear the voice of America's sons

Well, they're fighting in the jungles

And they're fighting in the streets

They're playing those games

Man, they're playing for keeps

Hey, little Johnny

When they call on you

Tell me, Johnny

What are you gonna do?

(CHORUS)

Turn the radio on

Turn the radio on

(CHORUS)

Turn the radio on

With every beat of the drum

Then go out in the streets

Hear the voice of America's sons

Turn the radio on

With every beat of the drum

Then go out in the streets

Hear the voice of America's sons
