Lyrics Back in the Day - Howie D.

Back in the Day

Howie do
Howie do
Howie do
Howie do
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
Howie do
Howie do
Howie do
Howie do
Howie do
