[Intro]
(Ba- Ba- Ba- Ba- Ba-)

[Chorus]
Back
When I was just a boy (Ha ha ha ha ha)
Back (Back)
When I was just a boy
(Oh-Oh-Oh)

[Post-Chorus]
Nothing was better (Oh-Oh-Oh)
Than a pat on the back (Oh-Oh-Oh)
Used to stay up 'til five in the morning (Oh-Oh-Oh)
They used to call me Jack

[Chorus]
But that was all back (Oh-Oh-Oh)
When I was just a boy
(Ba- Ba- Ba- Ba-)
Back
When I was just a boy
(Hey, mister) (Oh-Oh-Oh)

[Post-Chorus]
And nothing was better (Oh-Oh-Oh)
Than a bird in the hand (Oh-Oh-Oh)
I used to know the locals (Oh, hi!) (Hello!) (Oh-Oh-Oh)
And the lay of the land (Oh-Oh-Oh)
