Don't you remember
|
The fizz in a pepper
|
Peanuts in a bottle
|
At ten, two and four
|
A fried bologna sandwich
|
With mayo and tomato
|
Sittin' round the table
|
Don't happen much anymore
|
|
We got too complicated
|
It's all way over-rated
|
I like the old and out-dated
|
Way of life
|
|
Back when a hoe was a hoe
|
Coke was a coke
|
And crack's what you were doing
|
When you were cracking jokes
|
Back when a screw was a screw
|
The wind was all that blew
|
And when you said I'm down with that
|
Well it meant you had the flu
|
I miss back when
|
I miss back when
|
I miss back when
|
|
I love my records
|
Black, shiny vinyl
|
Clicks and pops
|
And white noise
|
Man they sounded fine
|
I had my favorite stations
|
The ones that played them all
|
Country, soul and rock-and-roll
|
What happened to those times?
|
|
I'm readin' Street Slang For Dummies
|
Cause they put pop in my country
|
I want more for my money
|
The way it was back then
|
|
Back when a hoe was a hoe
|
Coke was a coke
|
And crack's what you were doing
|
When you were cracking jokes
|
Back when a screw was a screw
|
The wind was all that blew
|
And when you said I'm down with that
|
Well it meant you had the flu
|
I miss back when
|
I miss back when
|
I miss back when
|
|
Give me a flat top for strumming
|
I want the whole world to be humming
|
Just keep it coming
|
The way it was back then
|
|
Back when a hoe was a hoe
|
Coke was a coke
|
And crack's what you were doing
|
When you were cracking jokes
|
Back when a screw was a screw
|
The wind was all that blew
|
And when you said I'm down with that
|
Well it meant you had the flu
|
I miss back when
|
I miss back when
|
I miss back when
|
