|
A long long time ago I can still remember
|
How that music used to make me smile
|
And I knew that if I had my chance
|
I could make those people dance
|
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
|
|
Did you write the book of love
|
And do you have faith in God above
|
If the Bible tells you so
|
Now do you believe in rock 'n roll
|
And can music save your mortal soul
|
And can you teach me how to dance real slow
|
|
Well, I know that you're in love with him
|
Cuz I saw you dancin' in the gym
|
You both kicked off your shoes
|
Man, I dig those rhythm and blues
|
|
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
|
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
|
But I knew that I was out of luck
|
The day the music died
|
|
I started singing
|
|
Bye bye Miss American Pie
|
Drove my chevy to the levee
|
But the levee was dry
|
And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
|
Singin' this will be the day that I die
|
This will be the day that I die
|
|
I met a girl who sang the blues
|
And I asked her for some happy news
|
But she just smiled and turned away
|
Well, I went down to the sacred store
|
Where I'd heard the music years before
|
But the man there said the music wouldn't play
|
|
Well now in the streets the children screamed
|
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
|
But not a word was spoken
|
The church bells all were broken
|
And the three men I admire the most
|
The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
|
They caught the last train for the coast
|
The day the music died
|
|
They started singing
|
|
Bye bye Miss American Pie
|
Drove my chevy to the levee
|
But the levee was dry
|
And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
|
Singin' this will be the day that I die
|
This will be the day that I die
|
|
Bye bye Miss American Pie
|
Drove my chevy to the levee
|
But the levee was dry
|
And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
|
Singin' this will be the day that I die
|
This will be the day that I die
|
|
We started singin'
|
We started singin'
|
We started singin
|
|
