rick james – good ol’ days lyrics

[intro: charlie wilson]
good ol’ days
good ol’ days
the good ol’ days
sha-da-da-dwee-dwee-dwee
ooh wee, ooh wee
ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah

[chorus]
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(pink champagne, in the good ol’ days)
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(in the good ol’ days, in the good ol’ days, good ol’ days)

[verse 1: rick james]
everybody had a good time
everybody drank the best wine
we played funk and music in the sunshine
and people danced everywhere
didn’t n-body have to be strapped
never had to worry ’bout a rat-tat-tat
gunshot goin’ down
’cause all you ever heard was a funky sound
i was living in the big time
so were good friends of mine
and we never stole a beat to eat
we’ve been bustin’ out of the ghetto streets (bustin’ out!)
in the ’80s it was all good (all good)
living high in hollywood
me and some very good friends of mine
charlie and george, dr. funkenstein, yeah

it was all good, in the good ol’ days
we were

[chorus]
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(in the good ol’ days, in the good ol’ days)
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(in the good ol’ days, in the good ol’ days)
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(in the good ol’ days, in the good ol’ days)

[verse 2: rick james]
everybody had a sneak peek (right)
everybody was a super freak (for real)
live on stage in ’81
teena marie and i had just begun
i was starting to get higher (higher)
we were burnin’ up with fire & desire
but i just couldn’t hang around
i guess that’s why she called me casanova brown (right)
i was throwin’ down all night (all night)
funk was alive, and so was i
even all the mary jane girls and me
couldn’t see the fog that was soon to be
the devil handed me a gl-ss pipe
soon as i awoke, i was out of sight (i was gone)
years went by while i was away
but now i’m back and i’m here to stay

[chorus]
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(in the good ol’ days, in the good ol’ days)
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(it was all good, in the good ol’ days)
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(dance in the sunshine)

[bridge: rick james]
parliament, (in my house), gap band, (yearning for your love)
maze and frankie, con funk shun, lakeside
stone city band keep funkin’
chaka khan, stevie wonder, in the good ol’ days
bar-kays, cameo, yeah, i remember
(we’re gonna give it to you, give it to you, give it to you, give it to you)
i remember

[chorus]
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(sha-da-da-dwee-dwee-dwee, nananana, ooh)
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
(just groovin’, and groovin’, and groovin’)
we were groovin’ with the mary jane
kickin’ back drinkin’ pink champagne
