It's summertime, it's so hot I'm wearing shorts a tank top and flip flops I see birds flying in the blue sky And marshmallow clouds floatin' by School's out so it's the weekend everyday From sun-up to sun-down in the hood we play Our block party's jammin off the chain We're lined up dancin' like we're on soul train The live band sounds so good to me With Derrick thumpin the ba** And Todd ticklin keys Laron and Pat both droppin the beat While Meshun and his boys supply the harmony I wish this day didn't have to end But 2morrow will come and we'll do it again Chorus Let's take it back to the ol' days When Mamma jammed to the OJay's While cookin' breakfast on a Saturday Those were the good ol' days Let's take it back to the ol' days When Daddy barbequed on Sunday And Livin' life was just so easy Those were the good ol' days I still like fresh sweats, dreads and adidas Boy, I only smiled just 2 let you know I see ya I was the kinda girl Who liked all the bad boys When I was young I lived for the fun and the Joy my life brought, then Life, was so carefree And now that I'm grown I wish I could go back to when We would play hide and seek Watch Schoolhouse Rock on tv Fat Albert and Prince were my two favorite things And 'My Adidas' by Run DMC Na'mean We're takin it back y'all 2 the place When the cabbage patch rocked y'all And the year Was 1985 y'all So go back in time with me Chorus out
