Man, I be thinkin' sometimes back when we was young, all the things we had, we thought it was like the coolest stuff, man, then times passes on and new technology brings in new stuff, it’s all good, man, let me tell ya how we did it though
[Verse 1]
I listened to long play and wax records back when I was little
Them 45s where you put that round piece in the middle
Collecting football cards from anywhere I could find them
8-tracks playing straight through ‘cause you couldn't rewind them
Catchin' whoopings with that switch, yeah, that might be me
‘member when grandma used to have that black and white tv?
A clothes hanger was the antennae, no, this ain’t a joke
We used to sit it on top of the big tv that was broke
Rotary phones, man, I ain't seen one of those in a while
Seems like the number used to take us five minutes to dial
You'd be like *brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*, man, I wish I could show ya
And you'd be hot when you mess it up and have to start over
Gettin' poked by the loose springs comin' out of your mattress
Wearing' them tough skinned jeans with them thick knee patches
Plastic covering that good couch, better not sit there
And hot combs got the house smelling like burnt hair so yeah
[Hook]
Years pass and the planet keep spinnin' ‘round
A lot’s changed when I think about then and now
I love the past and the present and I mean it y’all
I'm glad I’ve been here long enough to where I've seen it all
