Back When Songtext

von Tim McGraw

Don't you remember the fizz in a pepper
Peanuts in the bottle at ten two and four
A fried bologna sandwich with mayo and tomatoes
Sitting at the table don't happen much no more
We've gotten too complicated,
It's all way overrated
I love the old and outdated way of life
C H O R U S
Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
Crack's what you were doing when you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
When you said, "I'm down with that", it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when
I loved my records, black shiny vinyl
Clicks and pops and white noise, man they sounded fine
Had my favorite station, the one that played 'em all
Country, soul, rock and roll, what happened to those times
I'm reading street slang for dummies
'cause they put pop in my country
I want more for my money the way it was back then
C H O R U S
B R I D G E
I want the flattop strumming
Give me an old wurly humming
Oh, just keep it coming the way it was back then
C H O R U S
