Biz Markie - Throw Back
[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
