| Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams 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, Jody got married I shoulca known we'd never get far Oh, when I look back now The 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 I spent my evenings down at the drive-in And that's when I met you Standing on your momma'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 Man we were killing time We were young and restless We needed to unwind I guess nothing could last forever Forever...no And not the times are changing Look at everything that's come and gone Sometimes when I play that old six-string Think about you wonder what went wrong Standing on your momma's porch You told me 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...me and my baby in '69 It was the summer, summer, summer of '69 |
