[JAKE]
Looking back on when I
Was a little nappy headed boy
Then my only worry
Was for Christmas what would be my toy
Even though we sometimes
Would not get a thing
We were happy with the
Joy the day would bring

Sneaking out the back door
To hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine, uh-woah
Greeted at the back door
With "boy thought I told you not to go outside"
Tryin' your best to bring the
Water to your eyes
Thinkin' it might stop her
From woopin' your behind

[JAKE with NEW DIRECTIONS]
I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go
I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go
Cause I love them so

[JAKE]
Brother says he's tellin'
'Bout you playin' doctor with that girl
Just don't tell and I'll give you
Anything you want in this whole wide world
Mama gives you money for Sunday school
You trade yours for candy after church is through

Smokin' cigarettes and writing something nasty on the wall

[MARLEY]
You nasty boy!

[JAKE]
Teacher sends you to the principal's office down the hall
You grow up and learn that kinda thing ain't right
But while you were doin' it, it sure felt outta sight

[JAKE with NEW DIRECTIONS]
I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go
I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go

[JAKE]
Ow! Why did they have to go, yeah
Ooh, yeah, hooo, mhm, uuh
Oh, oh, yeah, hey, uh-woah

[JAKE with NEW DIRECTIONS]
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
