Summer Of '69 |
I got my first real six-string |
Bought it at the five and dime |
Played it till my fingers bled |
It was the summer of '69 |
Me and some guys from school |
Had a band and we tried real hard |
Jimmy quit and joey got married |
I shoulda known we’d never get far |
Oh when I look back now |
That summer seemed to last forever |
And if I had the choice |
Yeah — I’d always wanna be there |
Those were the best days of my life |
Back in the summer of '69 |
Ain’t no use in complaining |
When you got a job to do |
Spent my evenings down at the drive-in |
And that’s when I met you |
Standin' on your mama’s porch |
You told me that you’d wait forever |
Oh and when you held my hand |
I knew that it was now or never |
Those were the best days of my life |
Back in the summer of '69 |
Man we were killining time |
We were young and restless |
We needed to unwind |
I guess nothin' can last forever — forever, no |
And now the times are changing |
Look at everything that’s come and gone |
Sometimes I play that old six-string |
I think about ya wonder what went wrong |
Standing on your mama’s porch |
You told me it would last forever |
The way you held my hand |
I knew that it was now or never |
Those were the best days of my life |
Back in the summer of '69 |
