Up in Maine
Or on the Western Plain
Makes no difference where you go
Cinderella
And her fella
Have the parlor lights down low
Listening to the radio

Love is on the air tonight
And it's on a coast-to-coast hook-up
Love is everywhere tonight
Better look your coziest snookums
Each station
Throughout the nation
Will have a song coming through
So, if your set works
The major networks
Will do your wooing for you

You should never sing for her
If a song is not up your alley
You might sound like Bing to her
But suppose she likes Rudy Vallee
If some crooner from old Altoona
Can tell her better than you
Why should you care
Long as love is on the air tonight?
(instrumental break)

So get up 'cause love is on the air tonight
