Back in the Day - Howie D.

I’m gonna tell you a story 'bout when I was little

Gonna start from the beginning not in the middle

Gonna take you on a trip back in time

Don’t need no rocket or a teletransporter

Just imagine me about two feet shorter

Way back when I was nine

Back in the day

Back in the day

I played with Legos, wore my Star Wars shirt

Kicked it on Atari 'stead of playing in the dirt

Frogger, Pac Man and Tetris all day long

I went to school like any other kid

I looked a little different than the other kids did

But I’ll save that story for another song

Back in the day

Back in the day

Picture this, I’m gonna set the scene

'Cause I’m really going back if you know what I mean

Back to nineteen eighty three

One brother, three sisters, two parents and me

My mom was Puerto Rican my dad an Irish cop

The only mixed family on the block

So now I’m here to tell you true

The real life story of how Howie do

Back in the day

Back in the day

Back in the day

Back in the day

Back in the day

Back in the day
