Back in the Day - The Jones Girls

作曲：Kenneth Gamble/Leon Huff

Back in the day

When a loaf of bread cost a nickel

We usta ride all over town on my bicycle

We would stand on the corner an' sing

While the jukebox played our favorite song

Then the guys started fighting over something simple

They couldn't get along

Back in the day

Back in the day

Back in the day

When we usta go to the rock 'n' roll show

We usta have such a good time sitting on the very fist row

Friday house party with a red light

Drive in movie every Saturday night

That was the only chance I got to get away from mama

And hold somebody tight

Back in the day

Back in the day

When I think about yesterday

A tear comes to my eye

When I think about the games we played

They wasn't games there were just a part of my life

Back in the day

When we usta play hookey from school

There would always be somebody in class actin' a fool

I thought babies came by just kissin' boys

I thought life was carefree full of joy

But now I know better day by day I'm gittin' it

And I don't regret a thing

Back in the day

Back in the day
