Оригинален текст
I used to live in a poor neighborhood
My friends and me we always had a time
Never had no money but we had it so good
Those days are gone and I wanna go back
So pure so simple
Never thought about it when youre young you dont care
You dont realize it till its all behind
Take it for granted just not well
(chorus)
Oh-oh it was pure and simple
Ill remember those days till the end
Oh-oh God knows its simple
If I could live my life all over again
I'd keep it pure and simple
Those days are gone and I wanna go back
Got me a feelin' Im not alone
Wish I had a road so I could go back home
(repeats chorus twice)
