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
|
We 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'
|
We started singin'
|
|
|
