Waking up and stretching out my yawn
Getting ready, for all the weekend fun
Remember checking on my pager
To call them back, and set up plans to dance, for later

Just a throwback
Of what we used to do
Just a side track
Memories of Ol' Skool

A throwback
Of ballys on our feet
Getting slicked out
To hit up 1018

Always had the plan in case of rain
To hit downtown, without riding the train
Didn't want to wrinkle our gear
We'd pay for gas or take a cab just to get out there

Just a throwback
Of what we used to do
Just a side track
Memories of Ol' Skool

A throwback
Of ballys on our feet
Getting slicked out
To hit up 1018

Yeah, it's Ol' Skool
And I still recall
Just a throwback
Of hitting Webster Hall

And the Lime Light
Of course Palladium
Yeah, it's Ol' Skool
A place like Roseland too
