Take a seat youngin'; Stay around for a spell
I got a little story that I wanted to tell
Would ya
Please stick around, take a listen and see
Cause back in my day, things were always grand as can be
Now all the streets were paved with gold and gems; Glimmerin'
Lightin' up the skies at noon; This town is shimmerin'
Waitin' on nobody cause we got stuff to do
Cause we though with the new
We're talking old school, kids, that's just what we do!
Back in the day, it was the prime of the time
Imagine all the greats singing together in rhymes
And listening together on old Gramophones
And old Radios it was a hell of a time
Let me tall ya youngin', man the old days were grand
You could walk down to the beach and plant your hooves in the sand
You didn't have no worries
All was as grand as can be
So everybody take a listen
Open your eyes and see
So trot with me through the autumn leaves
And keep close to stay warm
Soon you'll see how much you mean to me
Feelings I've never felt before
Skippi-do-bop was the name of the game
Swinging like crazy everyone goes insane
It's a game except everyone wins
Why isn't music like that, anymore?
My god everything is such a bore now
Everything's the same thing over again
With all that hippin' and the hoppin'
And the bippin' and the boppin'
They dunno what jazz is all about, you see
You'll look back at your days
I'm sure you'll experience it sometime
Cause when you grow old
Everything seems cold
And a new generation will arrive
So trot with me through the autumn leaves
And keep close to stay warm
Soon you'll see how much you mean to me
Feelings I've never felt before
So trot with me through the autumn leaves
And keep close to stay warm
Soon you'll see how much you mean to me
Feelings I've never felt before
