Back In The Day歌词

[00:13.53]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[00:16.57]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
[00:19.36]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[00:22.80]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
[00:25.48]Back in the days When I just a little niggerole
[00:28.42]I looked up to my bigger bro
[00:30.25]Begged if I could kick it so
[00:31.67]When he went out with girls I could go taggin along
[00:34.20]Naggin if she had a sis maybe could mack a baby hoodrat
[00:37.26]Y'all remember way back then when it was 1985
[00:41.09]All the way live I think I was about ten
[00:43.41]One of those happy little ****** singin the blues
[00:46.14]That be always tryin to bag with the s**g (and karate shoes)
[00:49.62]Sayin "yo momma black his momma this his momma that"
[00:52.41]Then he get mad and wanna scrap
[00:54.70]We stay mad about ten minutes then it's like back on the bike
[00:57.98]To play hide and go get it with the younger hoes by the bungaloes
[01:01.33]Then switch to playin ding dong ditch when that gets
[01:04.51]Old and too cold to hack it threw on a bomber jacket
[01:07.50]You could tell the ballers 'cause they bell wearin gazelles
[01:10.27]If they really had money raised be sportin bk's
[01:13.33]And all the girls had they turkish link
[01:16.02]If it broke then they made earrings to it like they meant to do it
[01:19.64]But sometimes I still sit and reminesce
[01:21.92]Then think about the years I was raised back in the days
[01:25.75]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[01:28.44]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
[01:31.29]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[01:34.47]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
[01:37.31](And everybody say) (I remember way back when)
[01:40.13](And everybody say) (I remember way back when)
[01:43.02](And everybody say) (I remember way back when)
[01:45.86](What) (back in the day) (when) (back in the day)
[01:49.00]I'm still back in the days but now the year is '87
[01:52.10]'88 that's when my crew and I were in junior high
[01:55.13]In 7th grade I hated school (wish it'd blow up)
[01:58.20]No doubt I couldn't wait to get out (and be a grownup)
[02:00.98]But let me finish this reminescin and tellin
[02:03.81]Bout when girls was bellin tight courderoys like for the boys
[02:07.01]Basket weaves nike court airs and footsie socks
[02:10.26]And eatin pickles with tootsie pops
[02:13.01]And it don't stop I'm glad 'cause when J.J Fad hit
[02:16.05]Supersonic it was kinda like a sport to wear biker shorts
[02:19.10]Or to wear jeans and it seemed like the masses
[02:22.01]Of hoochies had poison airbrushes on they asses
[02:25.17]Dudes had on nike suits and the pumas with
[02:28.40]The fat laces 'cause it was either that or k-swiss
[02:31.21]I miss those days and so I pout like a grown jerk
[02:34.08]Wishin all I had to do now was finish homework
[02:37.29]It's true you don't realize really what you got til it's gone
[02:40.16]And I'm not gonna sing another sad song but
[02:43.43]Sometimes I do sit and reminesce then
[02:46.16]Think about the years I was raised back in the days
[02:49.54]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[02:52.36]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
[02:55.38]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[02:58.38]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
[03:00.83](And everybody say) (I remember way back when)
[03:03.78](And everybody say) (I remember way back when)
[03:06.76](And everybody say) (I remember way back when)
[03:09.79](What) (back in the day) (when) (back in the day)
[03:12.74]Well it's the niggerole I figure that now I'm all grown up
[03:15.80]Because I'm eighteen years old and guess you could say I'm holdin
[03:19.19]Down a steady job and crew steady mobbin
[03:21.74]You steady bobbin your head and I'm paid so I got it made
[03:25.21]But didn't always have clout used to live in south central L.A.
[03:29.31]That's where I stayed and figured a way out
[03:31.27]I gave it all I had so for what it's worth
[03:33.63]I went from rags to riches which is a drag but now I'm first
[03:36.95]So (ahmad and the jones' is on our way up)
[03:39.67]Yup we said that we was gonna make it since a kid and we finally did but
[03:43.17]Sometimes I still sit and reminesce then
[03:45.89]Think about the years I was raised back in the days
[03:48.87]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[03:52.13]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
[03:54.83]Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore
[03:58.01]But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
