WJYE (AM)

WJYE (1280 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a classic country music format. Licensed to Gardiner, Maine, USA, it serves the Augusta area. It first began broadcasting in 1968 under the call sign WABK. The station is owned by Blue Jey Broadcasting Company, Inc., which is controlled by Bob Bittner.

History

WJYE signed on September 23, 1968 as WABK, owned by Abenaki Company. The station had a contemporary middle-of-the-road format by 1971; within a year, this was mixed with some rock. An FM sister station, WKME (104.3 FM), was added in 1974. Two years later, WABK shifted to a talk/MOR format. In 1977, the station was sold to Tryon Communications, and talk programming was dropped; additionally, WABK joined ABC Radio. Programming began to be simulcast on what had become WABK-FM (which previously offered separate formats from the AM station) in 1980; that station returned to its own programming by 1984.

The station's call letters were changed to WQZN in 1987; however, the WABK call sign returned one year later, accompanied with a switch to an adult contemporary format that was largely simulcast with WABK-FM (though the AM station incorporated some news programming). In 1994, the station took the WFAU call sign and adult standards format from 1340 AM, which then became WMDR. WFAU had broadcast at 1340 AM since October 2, 1946.

Love Is Just A Game

by: Joe

Love is just a game
Oooh ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah (telling you)
Baby...
You cant keep doing this shit...
Oh oh, love is just a game...
Oh, listen babe...
Quit playing around, like it's a game,
You tell me to go, you tell me to stay,
Living with you is emotional,
Roller coaster ride, like you're just gone and hide,
Crossing the T's, and dotting the I's,
Trying to make it work but you won't let me,
It's like you're fighting with your self,
But baby I can tell, that you really don't wanna leave,
Love is a game for you, I see, but it means a lot more to me,
To ride it out when the going gets rough,
Then she closed the first real love,
Can't keep playing around with me,
If you really don't want me to leave,
Cos if love is a game, then I don't wanna play,
Cos there's someone out there for me,
Love is just a game...
Heard you were on the phone just the other day,
Talking to your girls, telling you that I'm leaving,
If you didn't mean it then why did you say it,
Cos love it ain't a game to me,
I'm packing my bags here I go again,
Wanna kick me out, ok, well I'm leaving,
And with those shorties came, so baby tell me
What's it gonna be,
I'm tired of all the fussing, and the fighting
We can't keep, just going on this way
So tired babe and angry,
You hurting me over and over again,
You making me wanna leave,
U don't understand just what you're doing to me
