Back In The Day

See this song ain't for everybody
Only the sexy people
You know who you are, hey baby
I'ma take you back to the 80's, check this out

This beat makes me reminisce
Takes me back to our first kiss
Carved our names on a big oak tree
I heart you and you heart me

New edition on the radio, I had a Commodore 64
We use to sit close on my bedroom floor
But mama never let us close the door

We used to hang outside until the lights came on
Thought I was fresh to death with my Adidas on
You'd kiss me on the cheek, I had a silly smile on
Where has the time gone?

I loved you since Thundercats, Thundercats, Thundercats, ho
Back when MTV played music videos
You told me get a Jheri curl, mama said no
That's how long I've loved you

Remember when I used to have a high top fade?
Back when you use to rock a dookie braid
Friendship bracelets in the 8th grade
I loved you since back in the day

Everyday after school I'd pop, you'd lock, we'd act a fool
I was at your house, you was at mine
Cosby Show at 8, Different World at 9

Motown 25, Michael moon walked for the very first time
Meet you at the rink on Friday night
We'd rock, we'd skate, hold hands real tight

Girl, you would look so cute with your Jordache on
Bet that you could still put those same jeans on
Kiss me now and I'll have that silly smile on
Girl you still turn me on and on and on, on, on

I loved you since Thundercats, Thundercats, Thundercats, ho
Back when MTV played music videos
You told me get a Jheri curl, mama said no
I loved you way back in the day

Remember when I use to have a high top fade?
Back when you use to rock a dookie braid
Friendship bracelets in the 8th grade
I loved you since back in the day

Now everybody you know how we use to do
In the parties back in the day
You know how we use to do, stand right here
I'mma stand right here
We all get in a line and we all be like

It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you
Without an old school jam to step to
Remember when we'd do the Whop
The whole crowd drop, do the Robo Cop

Go girl do the Cabbage Patch
Jam Master J killing on the scratch
Members only, Kid 'n' Play
That's how we did it back in the day

I loved you since Thundercats, Thundercats, Thundercats, ho
Back when MTV played music videos
You told me get a Jheri curl, mama said no
That's how long I've loved you

Remember when I use to have a high top fade?
Back when you use to rock a dookie braid
Friendship bracelets in the 8th grade
I loved you since back in the day

I loved you since Thundercats, Thundercats, Thundercats, ho
Back when MTV played music videos
You told me get a Jheri curl, mama said no
That's how long I've loved you

Remember when I use to have a high top fade?
Back when you use to rock a dookie braid
Friendship bracelets in the 8th grade
I loved you since back in the day

Party, there's a party over here
Party, there's a party over there
Party, there's a party over here

Party, there's a party over here
Party, there's a party right there
Party, there's a party right here
