Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Knew as me a bad from back in the days
[Chorus]
Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
Thought we would last forever and a day
I took one look in his eyes and fell for all his lies
Wooky, wooky, when me give Angelina
Make she curl up, I throw them and scream
Feel me loving make them gal them reveal
Everything in them heart that them feel
Good loving when the woman receives
Sake them that she wants she can't leave
Ragga, ragga, me no pet gal feel real
Make them know me no romp when we a do it
Gal, you're hot and it shows
From the hair style to the pedicure toes
Gal, mesmerize from the lyrical flows
We have the argument to con her out of she clothes
She knows that bank in the days 'pon the ends
Situation used to make the wise girl tense
That's when she hear about me and her girlfriends
Me never romp to switch them up on every weekends
[Chorus]
Tony can't do it like a me, wooky, wooky
Sherly can't do it like a me, wooky, wooky
Brandon can't do it like a me, wooky wooky
Kevin can't do it like a me
You got the style and the looks
Gal, them a grudge you and talk about you stush
Man, I see you walk and all I notice your tush
You're well, Brazilian up on all walks of your bush, come on
You leave a lasting impression in my mind
Top shelf material, your dress well divine
Man, them all a look for you if you put on di whine
Tell them
[Chorus]
Loving, loving, whem me give Angelina
Make she curl up, I throw them and scream
Feel me loving make them gal them reveal
Everything in them heart that them fell
Good loving when the girl them receives
Sake them want and can't leave
Say, ragga, ragga, me no pet gal feel real
Make them know me no romp when ew a do it
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
The song "Those Days" by Shaggy feat. Nasha talks about the nostalgia of the past and how time can change people. The singer reminisces about the past days where he was a bad boy, but now he has changed. He reflects on the friendships of the past, and how they thought it would last forever. However, as time passes, people change, and now he longs for the company of someone he knows is not good for him. The song also talks about his prowess in the bedroom and how he gives women unforgettable experiences.
The chorus speaks about the nostalgia of the past and how they thought it would never end. However, the singer acknowledges the dishonesty of people, especially men who only deceive women just to get what they want from them. Despite the pain and heartbreak, some women still crave the company of these men. The use of "wooky, wooky" in the song is an onomatopoeic word that means having sex or making love. This repetitive use is a reflection of his sexual prowess in the bedroom.
The song's overall message is to never forget about the past, but to also acknowledge the changes that come with time. It also highlights the importance of being honest and true to oneself and others. The song's upbeat melody and Shaggy's signature voice make it a fun song to dance to, even though the lyrics have a deeper meaning.
