American Pie - Don McLean

A long long time ago

I can still remember how

That music used to make me smile

And I knew if I had my chance

That I could make those people dance

And maybe they'd be happy for a while

But February made me shiver

With every paper I'd deliver

Bad news on the doorstep

I couldn't take one more step

I can't remember if I cried

When I read about his widowed bride

But something touched me deep inside

The day the music died

So Bye-bye Miss American Pie

Drove my chevy to the levee

But the levee was dry

And them good old boys

Were drinking whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die

This'll be the day that I die

Did you write the Book of Love

And do you have faith in God above

If the Bible tells you so

Have you believe in rock in roll

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

Cause I saw you dancing in the gym

You both kicked off your shoes

Man I dig those rhythm and blues

I was a lonely teenage broncing buck

With a pink carnation and a pickup truck

But I knew 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 them good old boys

Were drinking whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die

This'll be the day that I die

Now for ten years we've been on our own

And moss grows fat on a rolling stone

But that's not how it used to be

When the jester sang for the King and Queen

In a coat he borrowed from James Dean

And a voice that came from you and me

Oh and while the King was looking down

The jester stole his thorny crown

The courtroom was adjourned

No verdict was returned

And while Lennon read a book of Marx

The quartet practiced in the park

And we sang dirges in the dark

The day the music died

We were singing

Bye-bye Miss American Pie

Drove my chevy to the levee

But the levee was dry

Then good old boys

Were drinking whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die

This'll be the day that I die

Bye-bye Miss American Pie
