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
Union Square
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 sayAs I tell the story of this beautiful day"We'll go dancing in the dark" -
HEY!"Walking through the park, and reminiscing"
BREAK IT O
N DOWN!
Before Versace and
DKNYThere was a lot of clothes that was fly
Like Polo,
Benetton,
Coca-Cola and
Osh KoshGuess jeans and others that's acid washed
D.C. wore
K-Swiss and
Sergio {?}
VertiniGirls wore tennis skirts, that was mini
New Balance,
Fila, Nike and
ElitesAfrican clothes and medallions was worn
And when Rakim came out, knowledge was born
In the midst of it all,
I almost forgot
Makin Gucci, leather and suede tailor made
That had more flavor than mom's
Kool-AidI'm gonna tell you, the name of this man
He goes by the name of the
Dapper Dan
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-TeamIt was just a sign of me makin cream
But the cars and jeeps
