Back in Da Day!
I remember when Burger King use to be Nathans.
Man! It was one of my favorite places.
When the diner would sing
From a jukebox machine
And it was full of familiar faces.
From the pins in my jeans
To the stitch pleated seams
And boys sneaked a peak at playboy magazines.
When skelly was the thing
Sound of the Mr. Softy theme
Would send us all off to the races!
When it was quarter water drinks
And roller skating rinks.
It was pilot marker inks
And fat Gucci links,
When sewer caps use to be bases.
When Friday meant school was over soon
Early morn' Saturday cartoons
And they wouldn't serve warrants on Sunday afternoons
And graffiti filled my black book pages.
When what was done was done
When what happened; happened
When fun was fun
When laughing was laughing
We were kids in the hall
When life was a ball
As I know recall
It was when problems ..... really weren't problems at all!
