[00:01.77] |
A long long time ago. |
[00:04.70] |
I can sitll remember how. |
[00:07.64] |
That music used 2 make me smile. |
[00:12.46] |
And I knew that if I had my chance. |
[00:16.10] |
That I could make those people dance. |
[00:19.46] |
And maybe they'd be happy 4 a while. |
[00:29.66] |
|
[00:41.59] |
Did U write the book of love. |
[00:44.17] |
And do U have faith in God above. |
[00:48.91] |
If the Bible tells U so? |
[00:53.86] |
Now do U believe in rock & roll? |
[00:57.82] |
Can music save Ur mortal soul? |
[01:01.87] |
And can U teach me. |
[01:04.18] |
How 2 dance real slowly? |
[01:09.19] |
Well, I know that U're in love with him. |
[01:12.58] |
'Cause I saw U dancing in the gym. |
[01:17.34] |
U both kicked off Ur shoes. |
[01:19.99] |
Man,I dig those rhythm & blues. |
[01:24.54] |
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck. |
[01:28.65] |
With a pink carnation & a pickup truck. |
[01:32.20] |
But I knew that I was out of luck. |
[01:36.54] |
The day the music died. |
[01:42.99] |
I started singin' |
[01:44.62] |
Bye,bye Miss American Pie. |
[01:47.15] |
Drove my chivy 2 the levee. |
[01:50.01] |
But the levee was dry. |
[01:51.91] |
Then goo dole boys. |
[01:54.63] |
Were drinking whiskey & rye. |
[01:55.53] |
Singin' this'll be the day that I die. |
[01:59.64] |
This'll be the day that I die. |
[02:05.50] |
|
[02:09.90] |
I met a girl who sang the blues. |
[02:12.82] |
And I asked her 4 some happy new. |
[02:17.38] |
But she just smiled & turned away. |
[02:22.45] |
Then I went down 2 the sacred store. |
[02:26.31] |
Where I'd heard the music years before. |
[02:30.30] |
But the man there said. |
[02:32.86] |
The music wouldn't play. |
[02:37.79] |
Well now in the streets the children screamed. |
[02:41.97] |
The lovers cried & the poets dreamed. |
[02:45.81] |
But not a word was spoken. |
[02:49.84] |
The church bells all were broken. |
[02:53.22] |
And the three men I admire most- |
[02:57.30] |
The Father,Son,& the Holy Ghost- |
[03:01.08] |
They caught the last train 4 the coast. |
[03:05.12] |
The day the music died. |
[03:11.52] |
We started singing. |
[03:14.00] |
Bye,bye Miss American Pie. |
[03:17.06] |
Drove my chivy 2 the levee. |
[03:19.09] |
But the levee was dry. |
[03:21.20] |
Then goo dole boys. |
[03:23.06] |
Were drinking whiskey & rye. |
[03:24.94] |
Singin' this'll be the day that I die. |
[03:29.24] |
This'll be the day that I die. |
[03:38.95] |
|
[03:47.13] |
Bye,bye Miss American Pie. |
[03:50.01] |
Drove my chivy 2 the levee. |
[03:51.83] |
But the levee was dry. |
[03:54.29] |
Then goo dole boys. |
[03:55.54] |
Were drinking whiskey & rye. |
[03:57.87] |
Singin' this'll be the day that I die. |
[04:01.66] |
This'll be the day that I die. |
[04:07.23] |
We started singing. |
[04:10.85] |
We started singing. |
[04:14.67] |
We started singing. |
[04:18.46] |
We started singing. |
