I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the -and-dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
Was the summer of 69'Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit, Jody got married
I should've known, we'd never get farOh, when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah, I'd wanba be there
Those were the best days of my lifeAin't no use in conplainin'
When you've got a job to do
Spend my evenings down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you, yeahStandin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew it was now or never
Those were the best days of my lifeOh, yeah!
Back in the summer of 69', ohMan, we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever
Forever, no!
Yeah!And now times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about you, wonder what went wrongStandin' on your mama's porch
You told me that it'd last forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew that I was now or never
Those were the best days of my lifeOh, yeah!
Back in the summer of 69'
Oh!
It was the summer of 69'
Oh, yeah!
Me and my baby in 69'
Oh!It was the summer
The summer
The summer of 69'
Yeah!
