Step Back in Time Lyrics

[Verse 2]
Keep on trucking along
Riding on a love train
And then we can float on
You'll never go wrong

[Chorus]
When you can't find the music
To get down and boogie
All you can do is step back in time

Ball of confusion
When nothing is new, and
There's nothing doing, step back in time
Step back in time

[Bridge]
(Step back
I wanna step back, step back)
Remember the old days
Remember the O'Jays

Walking in rhythm
Life was for living

[Chorus]
When you can't find the music
To get down and boogie
All you can do is step back in time

Ball of confusion
When nothing is new, and
There's nothing doing, step back in time
When you can't find the music
To get down and boogie
All you can do is step back in time

Ball of confusion
When nothing is new, and
There's nothing doing, step back in time
When you can't find the music
To get down and boogie
All you can do is step back in time

Ball of confusion
When nothing is new, and
There's nothing doing, step back in time

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Answer

On a list of 30 of Kylie Minogue’s best singles, published on September 25, 2020, The Guardian ranked it as Kylie Minogue 19th best single, saying:

Notwithstanding the slight oddness of hearing Kyliee – who was born in 1968 – demanding to know if we remember “the old days” of late 60s/early 70s soul, Step Back in Time’s loving, reference-packed homage to the music of Stock Aitken and Waterman’s youth is a total joy.
