Biz Markie - Throw Back lyrics
[Verse One] I'd like to tell a story and it goes like this Before I was makin money hand over fist The mid-80's is what I'm talkin about You will agree without a reasonable doubt As I tell this tale, sittin on a pail This is one you'll like when it's done Only certain people know about Union Square The Rooftop, Latin Quarter, cause I was there Red Alert downtown, Brucie Bee uptown Grandmaster Vic had a different sound You had block parties, with free gifts Mr. Magic and Marley gave radio a lift You don't understand, but we do That's why I'm tryin to explain it to you So sit back and listen, to what I say As I tell the story of this beautiful day [Chorus: sampled] "We'll go dancing in the dark" - HEY! "Walking through the park, and reminiscing" BREAK IT ON DOWN! [Verse Two] Before Versace and DKNY There was a lot of clothes that was fly Like Polo, Benetton, Coca-Cola and Osh Kosh Guess jeans and others that's acid washed D.C. wore K-Swiss and Sergio {?}Vertini Girls wore tennis skirts, that was mini Spot{?}, Ewings, {?} New Balance, Fila, Nike and Elites African clothes and medallions was worn And when Rakim came out, knowledge was born In the midst of it all, I almost forgot There was a brother uptown makin his own spot Makin Gucci, leather and suede tailor made That had more flavor than mom's Kool-Aid I'm gonna tell you, the name of this man He goes by the name of the Dapper Dan [Chorus] [Verse Three] See at this time, you might think I'm strange Cause I wore a four-finger ring, and big gold chains Like I was Mr. T from the A-Team It was just a sign of me makin cream But the cars and jeeps |
