Intro

Verse 1

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

Chorus

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

Verse 2

I love my records, black, 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

Chorus

Break

end of chorus):

Give me a flat top for strumming

I want the whole world to be humming

Just keep it coming, the way it was back then

Chorus

I miss back when, I miss back when
