Bilingual
I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69
Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I should've 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 down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you
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
Ohh yeah
Back in the summer of '69
Ahhh
Back in the summer of '69
Ohh yeah
Me and my baby in '69
Ohh
Man we were killing time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothing can last forever - forever, no
Yeah
