Back In The DayBack in the dayWhen we were little kids We used to imitate The latest hit parade And sang the good old songs The radio would play And those movie stars Lived out a fantasy With those pretty chicks And those handsome dudes And we danced the night away Back in the day Back in the day We used to bunk off school We used to break the rules And sit in the movies all day Till the nighttime came around Back in the day Wow. See that guy that asked me to dance? I don't know him. How tall was he anyway? Hmm. Did you see his socks? I mean who wears socks like that? I don't know. Should have thought more about it. Those old Hank Williams songs The way Chet Atkins played Big bands and Honky-tonk And Dixieland bands marching on the parade And Eddie Cochran strummed along While Kay Starr sang her wheel of fortune song Back in the day Ooh, back in the day Back in the day When we were little kids We used to imitate The latest hit parade And sang the good old songs The radio would play Back in the day |
