I Wanna Go Back

Kid Rock * Track #4 On Early Mornin’ Stoned Pimp

I Wanna Go Back Lyrics

[Intro]
I wanna go back
I wanna go back

[Verse 1]
Uh, 'cause I remember way back when
Got kicked out the crib and had a place to stay
In the Clem with some friends, George and Jay
It was a funky fresh crew and I'd DJ
What a shock it was to be on the set
Comin' from a nice home, now livin' in the projects
No regrets 'cause I learned a lot
And I earned a lot in the parking lot
Doin' dirt for the O.G.'s slangin' rock
They used to call me that little white kid
Who could rock on the two turntables
And that ain't no fable
Watchin' Eddie Murphy instead of Clark Gable
My whole lifestyle switched Hoss
Puttin' in hours at the 76 car wash
But I could never wait for them weekends to come
Dum-ditty-dum-ditty-ditty-dum-dum
Boom-boom, the bass went
On turntables, fuckin' it up in Duke's basement
Groove Time Productions, we kept the jam jumpin'
Open up your ears, I'm tryin' to tell you somethin'
And give some love back to those that loved me
206 Court Street, and my second mom, Tracy
Little Keesha and Cole
My mellow blow, and my homegirl Flo
Rock 'round, see, you could find me some
But I kept my tables in the crib when I wasn't in the club
Tom Whit and Mike Shafer used to give me rides
And buy me groceries when I didn't have no paper
And I'm grateful for this
Sometimes I look back and it's these times I miss
Making demos on my old four track
Sometimes I can't help but think, I wanna go back

[Chorus]
I wanna go back... back in the time
I wanna go back
I wanna go back... go way back, way back, y'all
I wanna go back... back in the time

[Verse 2]
I got kicked out again for bein' fly
Got invited to stay with Tony and Eli
And they treated me like brothers
R.I.P. to their cool-ass mother
And my brother Din Dada
For the homies ain't here, I still gotta lot of love
I wanna go back, way back
And change things and bring y'all back
I'm pourin' beer out for y'all
I'm singin' "I Saw the Light" from my cousin Paul
Life brings a lot of tragedy
I look around at times and it's so sad to see
A wasted life, or a broken home
But all I can do is take care of my own
I feel so alone like a stranger
And sometimes I express my love through my anger
And I lost a lot of friends for this
Blackman, T-Bone, Ernest KDC, and Chris
And the rest of the Beast Crew
I ain't sayin' that I'm wrong, but I still got love for you
'Cause I remember how it used to be
Make way, motherfuckers, Beast Crew's in the party
To the right, to the left
Many black men and Funk Daddy Def Stef
And sometimes I feel blessed for sure
To have been a part of one of rap's last great tours
Ice Cube, Too Short, D-Nice, yo, yo
Kid Rock and it don't stop

[Chorus]
I wanna go back... back in the time
I wanna go back
I wanna go back... go way back, way back, y'all
I wanna go back... back in the time

[Verse 3]
I remember little Robert, 'cause I stayed with him
I used to go and see Campbell when I need a trim
And when times got grim and seen that I lost my way
I used to get blown off with Reve
Bumpin' shoulders and slappin' hands
Willie Knight had a disco, right in his basement, man
Them New Haven jams
Me and Blackman running crazy scams
Not a black or white thing, a wrong or right thing
Just makin' that money, and pullin' them honey's
Spandex shorts and the halter tops
Slanging them rocks and runnin' from the cops
The only white kid walkin' round on the block
Cruisin' in Amp's low-ridin' rag-top
Go see Howard for what you need
Underage, buyin' 40s and bags of weed
Late night liquor from Bubba Coles
People used to say, "Rock, you got soul"
Vince looked out and so did Lou
Had a studio budget from the cocaine loot
Chuck D and Murph were the original three
And now Richard D and Kracker are down with me
I got a studio record and a taste of fame
But when I roll through the Clem, it's all the same
Even though things change, you know I ain't forgot
'Cause the love from the past gave birth to Kid Rock
But it's hard to go back to the things I knew
'Cause the me life, uh, have new lives for two
Yeah, and that's where I'm at

[Chorus]
I wanna go back... back in the time (and that's where I'm at)
I wanna go back... go way back, way back, y'all
I wanna go back...back in the time (bring it down)

[Outro]
Way...
Hey...
Let it ride, let it ride
Hey...
Hey...
Way back, way back, y'all
