Angie Baby
Hit #1 - 12/74
You live your life in the songs you hear
On the rock 'n' roll radio
And when a young girl doesn't have any friends
That's a really nice place to go...
Folks hopin' you'd turn out cool
But they had to take you out of school
You're a little touched, you know
Angie baby

Lovers appear in your room each night
And they whirl you across the floor
But they always seem to fade away
When your Daddy taps on your door
'Angie, girl, are you alright?
Tell the radio goodnight'
All alone once more...
Angie, baby

Chorus:
Angie baby
You're a special lady
Living in a world of make believe...
Well...maybe

Stoppin' at her house is a neighbor boy
With evil on his mind
'Cause he's been peeking in Angie's room
At night through the window blinds
'I see your folks have gone away
Would you dance with me today?
I'll show you how to have a good time
Angie baby'

(Angie baby, Angie baby...)

When he walks in the room
He feels confused
Like he walked into a play
And the music's so loud it spins him around
'Til his soul has lost its way
And as she turns the volume down
He's getting smaller with the sound
It seems to pull him off the ground
Toward the radio he's bound
Never to be found

The headlines read that a boy disappeared
Now everyone thinks he died
'Cept a crazy girl
With a secret lover
Who keeps her satisfied
It's so nice to be insane
No one asks you to explain
Radio by your side
Angie baby

Chorus

Well, maybe
(Angie baby, Angie baby...)
Well, maybe
(Angie baby, Angie baby...)
(Angie baby, Angie baby...)
(Angie baby, Angie baby...)
