bought it at the five and dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
it was the summer of sixtynine.
Me and some guys from school
had a band and we tried real hard.
Jimmy quit Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get far.
Oh when I look back now
that summer seemed to last forever.
And if I had the choice
yeah I'd always wanna be there
those were the best days of my life.
Ain't no use in complaining
when you got a job to do.
Spent my evening's down at the drivein
and that's when I met you yeah
Standin' on your Mama's porch
you told me that you'd wait forever.
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never.
Those were the best days of my life
oh yeah
back in the summer of sixtynine oh.
Man we were killing time
we were young and restless
we needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever
forever.
And now the times are changing
look at everything that's come and gone.
Sometimes when I play that old six string
I think about you wonder what went wrong.
Standin' on your Mama's porch
you told me it'd last forever.
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never.
Those were the best days of my life
oh yeah
back in the summer of sixtynine oh oh.
It was the summer of sixtynine oh yeah.
Me and my baby it was sixtynine oh.
Sixtynine
It was the summer the summer
the summer of sixtynine...
