(What we're gonna do right here is go back

Way back back into time)

Yeah oh

Spoken:

(Donny Hathaway Lena Horne

Miss Aretha [The Real Thing] James Brown Billie Holiday

Stevie Wonder Gladys Knight Louis Armstrong

Minnie Riperton Otis Redding Etta James)

Back in the day they used to say

Play that song get it going and the band played

And still today you hear us say

Play that song all night long Mr. DJ

Though times have changed

It's still the same

We all need a minute to get away

So let it go and feel the flow

If you've got soul let the world know

We're gonna set the mood

(set the mood off right)

Gonna go back to an old school groove

(go back to an old school groove)

Gonna rewind to another time

When the originators innovators were alive yeah

And we say now

So break out the Marvin Gaye your Etta James

Your Lady Day and Coltrane

Turn up your 45's bring back to life

The sound and vibe of yesterday

Open your mind enjoy the ride

Get out tonight and grab that Soul Train

Take it back take it

(Back in the day back in the day)

Oh baby

(Back in the day back in the day)

Won't you take me back?

(Back in the day back in the day)

I'll do it

(Back in the day back in the day)

Ooh yeah

Spoken:

(Y'all remember back in the day you dig

Ray Charles Nat King Cole Miles Davis Ella Fitzgerald)

Yeah

Now "Chain Of Fools" and "Respect"

Was the anthem of a woman Aretha said

"What's Going On" "Let's Get It On"

Such classic songs don't forget them

Though times have changed

They still remain my inspiration every day

So give it up for the ones

Who came before opened up that door

We're gonna set the mood

(we're gonna) (set the mood)

Gonna go back to an old school groove

(go back) (to an old school groove)

Gonna rewind to another time

(rewind) (another time yeah)

When the originators innovators were alive (yeah yeah)

So break out the Marvin Gaye your Etta James

Your Lady Day and Coltrane

Turn up your 45's bring back to life

The sound and vibe of yesterday

(the sound and vibe of yesterday)

Open your mind enjoy the ride

Get out tonight and grab that Soul Train

Take it back take it

(Back in the day back in the day)

Oh baby

(Back in the day back in the day)

Won't you take me back?

(Back in the day back in the day)

I'll do it

(Back in the day back in the day)

So get up re-live it

Gotta let yourself go

Give up your praise

Come celebrate

Just get up get on it

Get yourself on the floor

Don't back away (don't back away)

Come celebrate (we're gonna celebrate yeah)

So break out the Marvin Gaye your Etta James

Your Lady Day and Coltrane

Turn up your 45's bring back to life

The sound and vibe of yesterday

(the sound and vibe alright yeah)

Open your mind enjoy the ride

Get out tonight and grab that Soul Train

Takin' it back in the day day whoa
