buckcherry - summer of '69 lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
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

[verse 1]
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

[chorus 1]
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

[verse 2]
ain’t no use in complainin’
when you got a job to do
i spent my evenings down at the drive+in
and that’s when i met you, yeah

[chorus 2]
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
[bridge]
man, we were k!llin’ time
we were young and restless
we needed to unwind
i guess nothing can last forever
forever, no
yeah

[verse 3]
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

[chorus 2]
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

[outro]
me and my baby in a ’69, oh, oh
it was the summer, summer, summer of ’69
(yeah)
