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 and 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
Break
Give me a ... flat top for strumming, I want the ... whole world to be humming
Oh 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
I miss back when ... I miss back when
