The Boys Are Back in Town

Malvin “Dino” Vice, Charlie Wilson, Lonnie Simmons

Just got off a long hard road
Back at home again
Reminiscing good old times
The things that happened then
Standing in a summer breeze
Whistling in the tall oak trees
No one here but the guys and me
The boys are back in town

Drifted into town one day
My, how things had changed
Skyscrapers and parking lots
Boy, it's a shame
How music calls you to your fame
Get out there and play its game
Come back home the whole town is strange
The boys are back again

Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town

Strolling through a park that day
Where a church had been
Watching all the young kids play
Make their spinning tops spin
Happy youthful children sounds
Mocked a crazy carnival clown
A little boy kicking a ball around town
Glad we're back in town

Went on to the town square
A crowd was gathered there
Looking at the pretty girls
The fairest of the fair
The whole damn crowd began to cheer
Many friends that we held so dear
Made us glad that we were all here
Glad we're back in town

Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town

Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Hear me say, na

What the children need to see
Is what the world really should be
No one knows but the guys and me
Glad we're back in town

Here me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Here me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town

Here me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Here me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town

Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Hear me say, na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
The boys are back in town
Hear me say na

What the children need to see
Is what the world really should be
No one knows but the guys and me
The boys are back in town

Hear me say na
Na, na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na, na
