B.j. The D.j.

F                            
A story bout a pal of mine who 
worked down near the Georgia line as
 D.J. in a Little country station

            C7

Everybody loved him dear'cause he 
played what they liked to hear he 
built him-self up quite a reputation

                       F

At the record hops he stayed out 
late and his mom would always wait 
to see if he had made it home a live

                           C7

She warned against his loss of sleep
 and driving fast in that old heap 
and that he had to be at work by 
five.
                             F


(Chorus:)  F                       
   B.J. the D.J. you're living much
                       C7        
 too fast and if you don't change 
your ways don't see how you can last

              F

Every morning just past four from 
the driveway he would roar over 
slept and he was let again

      C7

Then at break-neck speed he'd drive 
to sign the station on at five he 
had lots of records he must spin

                  F

His mom sat by the radio until his 
voice told her hello she knew then 
that he'd made it there all right

                C7

Then she'd say a little prayer he'd 
be safe for he was there and she 
wait up for him again to night

             F


   F                               
Then one cold and rainy morn all 
the tires were badly worn but still 
he scratched of just as fast this 
time
                      C7

B.J. had a lot of nerve but he 
completely missed the curve and he 
signed off down near the Georgia 
line
                              F

Mom sat by the radio the voice she 
heard she did noy know  B.J'd, never
 beed this late before.

    C7

But with the road so bad and all 
she'd ait awhile before she called 
and then she heard the knock up on 
the door

   F

(Chorus) F                         
B.J. the D.J. on-ly twen-ty-four a 
    C7                             
wreck at nine-ty miles an hour 
he'll spin the hits no more.
