Those Were The Days

歌詞

We used to play jump the line Or who could wrap the swing around the frame the most times back in the day Riding our bikes around the estate and playing basketball in the cage those were the days I remember them water fights teh tap outside Used to race to it on our bikes Grinning with two front teeth missing we did what we liked Those days I'm missing those days were alright Knock down ginger knock knock then shift Two minutes later we got locked in the lift Laughing when we got out Got into silly arguments about who found the pound on the ground Bopped to the shops bought about ten ice pops The weather was hot so they melted in our pockets Used to carry my belongings in them McDonalds bumbags That was back then so boy don't mock it Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I will never forget Yeah yeah Those were the days I could never regret Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I will never forget Yeah yeah Those were the days We used to race down the hill in old Safeway Trollets I wasn't indoors playing with Barbies or dollies I was outside jumping off walls or playing football Or getting chased by the local pit The odd character that every borough had Mad Phillip Gingerbeard or Mad Max the faces you wouldn't wanna see when you're on your jacks In the places you wouldn't be in if you stuck to your packs Stayed out till it was pitch black Sprayed my name on concrete slabs And I never got bitch-slapped Seen a couple of mans get stabbed Been chased by the mad man Gotta get back so I can Catch joke with my next door neighbor We played the first Mortal Kombat on the Sega By that playing the latest jungle tunes we had on cassette Those were the day I will never forget Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I will never forget Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I could never regret Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I will never forget Yeah yeah Yo those were the days Remember naf naf jackets and spliffy jeans Adidas campus them things were in It wasn't about the king of the bling It was the king of the rimor the king of the swing Back then well I kind has less But less was much better cause it saved a lot of stress I hung out in Coffers community center Now they've knocked it down and replaced it with an Asda My parents way of telling us to get our backs in was them sounding some old fucking claxon We're soldier marched bac to Redcliffe Walk Chalkhill Estate don't exist no more it's just talk Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I will never forget Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I could never regret Yeah yeah Yo those were the days I will never forget Yeah yeah Those were the days Yo Yo those were the days Yo Yo Yo those were the days
