Don McLean lyrics American Pie lyrics 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 ˇˇˇˇwith 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 Them good ole 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? Now do you believe in rock and 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 broncin' 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(*) 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 Lenin read a book on Marx The quartet practiced in the park And we sang dirges in the dark The day the music died We were singing(*) Helter skelter in a summer swelter The birds flew off with a fallout shelter Eight miles high and falling fast Landed foul on the grass The players tried for a forward pass With the jester on the sidelines in a cast Now the half-time air was sweet perfume While sergeants played a marching tune We all got up to dance Oh, but we never got the chance 'Cause the players tried to take the field The marching band refused to yield Do you recall what was revealed The day the music died? We started singing(*) Oh, and there we were all in one place A generation lost in space With no time left to start again So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick Jack Flash sat on a candlestick 'Cause fire is the devil's only friend And as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched in fists of rage No angel born in hell Could break that Satan's spell And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrificial rite I saw Satan laughing with delight The day the music died He was singing(*) I met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news But she just smiled and turned away 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 And 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 most ˇˇthe Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died And they were singing(*) Other Don McLean lyrics: Three Flights Up lyrics Orphans Of Wealth lyrics No Reason For Your Dreams lyrics General Store lyrics Respectable lyrics Tapestry lyrics Bad Girl lyrics Mother Nature lyrics Aftermath lyrics La La Love You lyrics Did You Know lyrics Wonderful Night lyrics Genesis (In The Beginning) lyrics Chain Lightning lyrics You Have Lived lyrics Winter Has Me In Its Grip lyrics Homeless Brother lyrics Great Big Man lyrics Magdalene Lane lyrics Circus Song lyrics The Pattern Is Broken lyrics Jump lyrics Color TV Blues lyrics When Love Begins lyrics When A Good Thing Goes Bad lyrics The Wrong Thing To Do lyrics Wonderful Baby lyrics The More You Pay (The More It's Worth) lyrics Oh My What A Shame lyrics Narcisissma lyrics Falling Through Time lyrics Bronco Bill's Lament lyrics Birthday Song lyrics If We Try lyrics Dreidel lyrics Babylon lyrics Sister Fatima lyrics Till Tomorrow lyrics Everybody Loves Me Baby lyrics The Grave lyrics Crossroads lyrics Winterwood lyrics Empty Chairs lyrics Superman's Ghost lyrics To Have And To Hold lyrics Everyday lyrics Crying lyrics And I Love You So lyrics Vincent lyrics It's Just The Sun lyrics Castles In The Air lyrics Left For Dead On The Road Of Love lyrics Jerusalem lyrics Isn't It Strange lyrics Crazy Eyes lyrics Believers lyrics This Little Girl (Daddy-O) lyrics The River Of Love lyrics Little Cowboy lyrics Angry Words lyrics You Who Love The Truth lyrics Siamese Twins lyrics One In A Row lyrics Infinity lyrics Have You Seen Me lyrics Fashion Victim lyrics 1967 lyrics What Will The World Be Like lyrics |
