I got my first real six string
Bought it at the five-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 and Jody got married
I shoulda know we'd never get far
But when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had a choice
Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life
ย
Ain't no use in complainin'
When you've got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
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 '69
Oh
Man, we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothing can last forever
Forever, no
Yeah
ย
And now the 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 wrong
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that it'd last 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 '69
Uh-huh
It was the summer of '69
Oh, yeah
Just me and my baby in a '69
Oh, whoo!
It was the summer
Sweet, sweet summer time
Yeah, c'mon
ย
It was the summer of '69
