WAEB-FM, commonly known as "B104", is a Top 40 (CHR) radio station located in Allentown, Pennsylvania, in the Lehigh Valley region of Pennsylvania, in the United States and owned by iHeartMedia, Inc.. WAEB-FM broadcasts at 104.1 MHz FM.
WAEB-FM signed on in 1961, initially simulcasting the Top 40 format airing on 790 WAEB. In the late 60s, WAEB FM separated from WAEB and went through several formats before eventually becoming a country music station known as WXKW.
In April 1985, the station reverted to the WAEB call letters and switched to a Soft Adult Contemporary format, playing a small amount of adult standards artists initially as well as a few new songs. The station was known as "The New Light 104 WAEB-FM" and it was a "niche" format meant to compete with 100.7 WFMZ (which was easy listening at the time) and 96.1 WLEV (which was an automated/live assist "Hot AC.")
By the early part of 1986, WAEB FM had evolved to more of a mainstream adult contemporary format. By the late part of 1986, the station was phasing out the "Light" name and became "104 WAEB-FM", and the music mix changed to a "heavily dayparted" AC/CHR mix without the hype.
I just wanna be your ball and chain
Wrapped around your finger
Locked up, tied me down
Follow you forever
Never let you get away,
Holding on like a ball and chain
I never wanted to stay
In one place too long
Oh no, not me, I didn't wanna be
A victim of that fatal touch
When you want someone too much but
You, you'll be the end of me
And I don't want to hurt anymore
I tried my best to avoid
Making promises
Oh, no, not me, I didn't wanna
be a prisoner of that tender trap
When there's no turning back but
You, you got me on my knees
And I won't be afraid anymore
I just wanna be your ball and chain
Wrapped around your finger
Locked up, tied me down
Follow you forever
Never let you get away,
Holding on like a ball and chain
I know it's been some time confined to be alone
but I know I found the one who's gotts be this love jones
you know that I get open when you rubbing my back the goose bumps
and chills must be proof of that cos I'm feeling when your dealing
all the knowledge you've got about making it good
when your touching my spots I've goy lots of loving
when we bubbling it right I look forward to the time the day turns night
you've gotta meet me at the crib for the quarter to nine
and at the time love devine and what do I find
I won't be afraid anymore
The side of you be wanting me just haunting my fight boy be my ball and chain yo it's gotta be right
I just wanna be your ball and chain
Wrapped around your finger
Locked up, tied me down
Follow you forever
Never let you get away,
