lyrics

Back in the day way back when
Running crazy with my old friends
How I wish I could go back again

To those warm summer nights around the watering hole
Before disco killed rock and roll
Its gone for good like the Dutchman's gold

Looking back man we had a blast
How the years went by so fast
Seems like none of the good times were built to last

Back in the day, all my troubles seemed so far away
I didn't have all these telephone calls to make or these bills to pay
Times have changed, familiar faces seem so strange
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day

All of my memories covered in dust
My muscle car is starting to rust
America in God we trust

Urban sprawl with a Spanish name
Just can't stop eminent domain
Nothing will ever ever be the same

Wondering where did everyone go
What came of me? No one will ever know
I lost touch such a long, long time ago

Back in the day, all my troubles seemed so far away
I didn't have all these telephone calls to make or these bills to pay
Times have changed, familiar faces seem so strange
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day

Didn't have a future, I didn't need a plan
Playing tunes til sunrise in a rock and roll band

Back in the day, all my troubles seemed so far away
I didn't have all these telephone calls to make and these bills to pay
Times have changed, familiar faces seem so strange
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day

Sweet Juanita Encinitas, California

Americana and sometimes
“Spacey Hippy Rock”,
with thought provoking lyrics, surrounded in a bed of organic, analog instruments played by humanoids

After a long absence of playing music together, John and Rand got hired to play a gig amidst the height of COVID. At the gig, they came up with the beginnings of the song “Back To You”. The boys soon realized that two heads are better than one.
