Story Behind The Song
Didn't like the mood of a lot of the new music I've been hearing lately. I wanted to hear some of that good up beat happy funky stuff like EWF gave us in the 70's. So I wrote a song ...

Lyrics
I see the kids with their shaved heads
The nose rings, and lots of tattoos
I see them hanging out on the street
Don't care about the politics or the news
That's why I'm turning back the clock
I'm gonna make your body rock
I'm going retro - retro on the metro
I'm going retro - retro funkadeli-icious!
If it makes you chake don't deny it
If it makes you happy then it's alright
I've seen you wiggling when you try it
I know you're digging it and it's alright, alright
That's why I'm turning back the clock
I'm gonna make your body rock
I'm going retro - retro on the metro
I'm going retro - retro funkadeli-icious!
