Lyrics

"BACK IN THE DAY" Charlie Feldman / Billy Sideman

I heard James brown
and his famous flames
They Were kings of the real old school
They Got Rickwood field a buzzing
Way back in 62

Ev'rybody dancin' in the aisles
Yeah Rockin' to the funky beat
They left 2000 empty bottles
Lyin' underneath the seats

Man it was surely something
That's what the old folks say
It Didn't get much better than that
Back in the day

Chorus
Back in the day
Back in the day
Back in the day

Well High school had its hangups
Yeah the Weekdays moved too slow
We couldn't wait til Friday nighttime
When the rum and cokes would flow

There'd be Music, smokes and tellin lies
To so many sweet young things
We'd roll the Windows down, drivin' to the gulf
Dreamin' our beer soaked dreams

Boys will be boys
But girls always had their way
We just kept that really down low
Back in the day

Chorus

Man it was surely something
That's what the old folks say
It Didn't get much better than that
Back in the day
