Back In the Day

Back in the day when we was young

My mother hadto storm through the weather

She knew just what it takes

To make our lives a little bit better

Now things wasn't easy

That's all I say to that

But the things that I went through

I learned a lot and that's a fact

NowI know in life there's changes

We have to move on

But the memories last forever

Just like a good old song

Back in the day

Back in the day

My mother worked two jobs

Then came home and made dinner

And she never complained

To me that's a winner

Always food on the table

And clothes on our backs

She was a real strong woman

And that's a natural fact

Now I know time has changed

And nothing stays the same

I thank my Mum for giving me

Her love and everything

Back in the day, Back in the day

Now when I look at things today

How times have changed

You know my mum's so proud

Of the man I became

Life is still not easy

I still have hard times

But the things my Mum told me

Stays on my mind

All I have is memories

That's how I stay strong

The memories that I have

Will last my whole life long

Every time I think about it

I feel good about myself

I just want to spread the news

To everybody else

Back in the day, Back in the day

I wanna thank you

Mama

For being there for me

I wanna thank you

Mama
