lyrics

Verse 1.
Back in the day when me and the boys in
the gang, we ruled these streets around here
And all the local girls they used to hang around
Coz they knew that we were the guys to be near.
But as time went past then one by one
The boys moved on and settled down
And for a while it was the same for me until
I shed responsibility. And now.

Chorus
I’m back and maybe a little bit older
I’m back daughters lock up your mothers
I’m back I’m primed and I’m loaded
I’m back, and ready to show the old magic.
The old magic, I’m just a little bit older
but ready to show the old magic.

Verse 2.
Maybe I’ve changed and my shirts are a little too tight
but I feel that I’m as sharp as a knife
So come now Girls don’t miss what’s on offer here
I’ve experience that I’m willing to share.
The boys in the gang aren’t on the street
But I’m back out there and willing to meet.
It’ll be the same when the lights go out
I just might need a little blue pill.

Chorus

Verse 3.
What the boys in the gang do not know,
is that whilst they all sit at home
Their honour is being boosted by one of their own
putting in the time needed to regain the throne

Chorus

Then
I’m back and living the dream
I’m back and I’m out on the scene
I’m back, I’m looking for fun
I’m back, I’m a reloaded gun.
I’m back to show the old magic
