| It ain’t the same no mo
|
| No it ain’t the same)
|
| Back in the day, we were the kids in trouble, home-sliced, school skipping
|
| Me and my brother, breakdancin' duels, dirt clod fightin' fools
|
| Like two dogs scrappin' over the bone, we were fightin' over the telephone
|
| Now we don’t take calls…
|
| Used to climbs the walls, juiced up on kool-aid, caffiene
|
| Running wild, and pumpin' through our veins
|
| It just ain’t the same, it just ain’t the same
|
| It ain’t like it used to be
|
| It ain’t like it used to be around here no mo'
|
| If I didn’t have my memories
|
| I’d be so broke down po'
|
| It ain’t like it used to be around here no mo'
|
| (It ain’t the same no mo
|
| Cause it ain’t the same no mo
|
| It ain’t the same no mo
|
| No it ain’t the same)
|
| Once upon a one, two, three
|
| Music was a mystery
|
| When I was young it fascinated me
|
| I didn’t know how to play back in the day
|
| Headphones, had my Silvertone
|
| Tuned to open E
|
| Reel-to-reel rollin'
|
| Hey Bo Diddley flowing
|
| This is all I ever wanted to do
|
| Now here I am, 32, I got it goin' on
|
| Gonna continue, got it good, knock on wood
|
| I can’t complain, but thinkin' back on the old days
|
| It just ain’t the same, it just ain’t the same
|
| It ain’t like it used to be
|
| It ain’t like it used to be
|
| It ain’t like it used to be around here no mo, no mo
|
| (It ain’t the same no mo
|
| Cause it ain’t the same no mo
|
| It ain’t the same no mo
|
| No it ain’t the same)
|
| Big city used to be a forest long gone
|
| Progress went wrong
|
| Should’ve let it alone, blood bath, buffalo bones
|
| America is bloody, the white man was wrong
|
| America is bloody, the white man was wrong
|
| Indian, African, man, it ain’t nothin' but some skin
|
| The Mississippi delta was a jungle before the white man came
|
| It just ain’t the same
|
| It ain’t like it used to be
|
| It ain’t like it used to be
|
| It ain’t like it used to be around here no mo'
|
| (It ain’t the same no mo
|
| Cause it ain’t the same no mo
|
| It ain’t the same no mo

| No it ain’t the same) |
