I got my first real six-string Bought it at the five-and-dime Played 'til my fingers bled was summer of '69 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 The summer seemed to last forever And if I had the choice Ya - I'd always wanna be there Those were the best days of my life
(CHORUS)
Ain't no use in complainin' When you 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
(Chorus)
Back in Summer of '69 OH Man we were killin' time We were young and restless We needed to unwind I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no Yeah And now the times are changin' Look at everything that's come and gone Somethimes when I play that old six-string I think about ya wonder what went wrong Standin' on your mama's porch You told me it would 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
(Chorus)
Back in summer of '69 (Repeats until fading off)
