(Intro)
I‎ wanna‎ do‎ it‎ like‎ we‎ did‎ it
Way‎ back‎ in‎ the‎ day
I‎ wanna‎ do‎ it‎ like‎ we‎ did‎ it
Just‎ to‎ hear‎ you‎ say
I‎ wanna‎ do‎ it‎ in‎ a‎ minute‎
'Cause‎ there's‎ no‎ better‎ way‎
I‎ wanna‎ do‎ it‎ 'cause‎ I‎ need‎ it
And‎ I'm‎ ready‎ to‎ play

Back‎ in‎ the‎ day‎ when‎ we‎ had‎ more‎ hair
We‎ lived‎ it‎ to‎ the‎ fullest‎ and‎ we‎ just‎ didn't‎ care‎
Always‎ on‎ the‎ road‎ going‎ anywhere‎
Never‎ found‎ a‎ reason‎ to‎ turn‎ down‎ a‎ dare

(Chorus‎)
'Cause‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it‎ back‎ in‎ the‎ day
Things‎ were‎ so‎ simple‎ I‎ just‎ gotta‎ say
Only‎ had‎ time‎ for‎ fun‎ and‎ play
Ya,‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it
Back‎ in‎ the‎ day


All‎ the‎ coolest‎ clothes‎ is‎ what‎ we'd‎ wear‎
We‎ never‎ had‎ nothing‎ but‎ we'd‎ always‎ share
My‎ buddy‎ and‎ I‎ made‎ quite‎ a‎ pair‎
We‎ were‎ running‎ on‎ empty,‎ and‎ living‎ on‎ a‎ prayer‎

(Chorus‎)
'Cause‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it‎ back‎ in‎ the‎ day
Things‎ were‎ so‎ simple‎ I‎ just‎ gotta‎ say
Only‎ had‎ time‎ for‎ fun‎ and‎ play
Ya,‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it
Back‎ in‎ the‎ day


Always‎ on‎ the‎ make‎ with‎ another‎ affair‎
Barely‎ having‎ time‎ to‎ come‎ up‎ for‎ air
Never‎ felt‎ better‎ I‎ do‎ declare‎
I‎ would‎ do‎ it‎ all‎ again‎ I‎ solemnly‎ swear

(Chorus‎)
'Cause‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it‎ back‎ in‎ the‎ day
Things‎ were‎ so‎ simple‎ I‎ just‎ gotta‎ say
Only‎ had‎ time‎ for‎ fun‎ and‎ play
Ya,‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it
Back‎ in‎ the‎ day


Every‎ Friday‎ night‎ we‎ were‎ loaded‎ for‎ bear‎
Looking‎ for‎ trouble‎ so‎ you‎ better‎ beware‎
We‎ were‎ so‎ cool‎ it‎ was‎ truly‎ unfair‎
The‎ things‎ we‎ do‎ now‎ don't‎ really‎ compare‎

(Chorus‎)
'Cause‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it‎ back‎ in‎ the‎ day
Things‎ were‎ so‎ simple‎ I‎ just‎ gotta‎ say
Only‎ had‎ time‎ for‎ fun‎ and‎ play
Ya,‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it
Back‎ in‎ the‎ day

'Cause‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it‎ back‎ in‎ the‎ day
Things‎ were‎ so‎ simple‎ I‎ just‎ gotta‎ say
Only‎ had‎ time‎ for‎ fun‎ and‎ play
Ya,‎ that's‎ how‎ we‎ did‎ it
Back‎ in‎ the‎ day

Time‎ is‎ always‎ moving‎
You‎ can‎ never‎ stay
Don't‎ know‎ if‎ it‎ was‎ better‎
But‎ it‎ sure‎ felt‎ that‎ way‎
Ain't‎ nothing‎ like‎ that‎ feeling‎
That‎ I‎ get‎ today
Hold‎ on‎ to‎ those‎ memories‎
Before‎ they‎ soon‎ fade‎ away
