Throw Back
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 sayAs 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 O
N DOWN![Verse Two]
Before Versace and
DKNYThere was a lot of clothes that was fly
Like Polo,
Benetton,
Coca-Cola and
Osh KoshGuess jeans and others that's acid washed
D.C. wore
K-Swiss and
Sergio {?}
VertiniGirls wore tennis skirts, that was mini
Spot{?}, Ewings, {?}
New Balance,
Fila, Nike and
ElitesAfrican 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-AidI'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-TeamIt was just a sign of me makin cream
But the cars and jeeps
