Lyrics:

The first thing I remember
I was lyin' in my bed
I couldn't have been no more than one or two
And I remember there's a radio
Comin' from the room next door
And my mother laughed the way some ladies do
When it's late in the evening
And all the music's seepin' through

The next thing I remember
I am walkin' down the street
I'm feeling alright, I'm with my boys, I'm with my troops, yeah
Down along the avenue
Some guys were shootin' pool
And I heard the sound of a cappella groups, yeah
Singin' late in the evening
And all the girls out on the stoops, yeah

Then I learned to play some lead guitar
I was underage in this funky bar
And I stepped outside to smoke myself a 'J'
When I come back to the room
Everybody just seemed to move
And I turned my amp up loud and began to play
It was late in the evening
And I blew that room away


First thing I remember
When you came into my life
I said I'm gonna get that girl no matter what I do
Well, I guess I've been in love before
And once or twice I been on the floor
But I never loved no one the way that I loved you
And it was late in the evening
And all the music seepin' through (Hoo)


First thing I remember
When you came into my life
I said I'm gonna get that girl no matter what I do
Well, I guess I've been in love before
And once or twice I been on the floor
But I never loved no one the way that I loved you
And it was late in the evening
And all the music seepin' through
