American Pie lyrics

Send "American Pie" Ringtone to your Cell A long, long time ago I can still remember How that music used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those people dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while But February made me shiver With every paper I delivered Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride But something touched me deep inside The day the music died So bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' thisll be the day that I die, Thisll be the day that I die Did you write the book of love And do you have faith in God above If the Bible tells you so And do you believe in rock and roll Can music save your mortal soul And can you teach me how to dance real slow Well I know that you're in love with him 'Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym You both kicked off your shoes Man, I dig those rhythm and blues I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck With a pink carnation and a pickup truck But I knew I was out of luck The day the music died I started singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' thisll be the day that I die, Thisll be the day that I die Now for ten years we've been on our own And moss grows fat on a rolling stone But that's not how it used to be When the jester sang for the king and queen In a coat he borrowed from James Dean In a voice that came from you and me Oh and while the king was looking down The jester stole his thorny crown The courtroom was adjourned No verdict was returned And while Lenin read a book on Marx The quartet practiced in the park And we sang dirges in the dark The day the music died We were singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' thisll be the day that I die, Thisll be the day that I die Helter skelter in a summer swelter The birds flew off with a fall out shelter Eight miles high and falling fast And landed foul on the grass The players tried for a forward pass With the jester on the sidelines in a cast Now the halftime air was sweet perfume While sergeants played a marching tune We all got up to dance, Oh but we never got the chance Cause the players tried to take the field The marching band refused to yield Do you recall what was revealed The day the music died We started singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' thisll be the day that I die, Thisll be the day that I die Oh in there we were all in one place A generation lost in space With no time left to start again So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick Jack flash sat on a candlestick cause Fire is the devil's only friend Oh and as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched in fists of rage No angel born in hell Could break that Satans spell And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrificial right I saw Satan laughing with delight The day, the music died He was singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' thisll be the day that I die, Thisll be the day that I die I met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news But she just smiled and turned away I went down to the sacred store Where Id heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play And in the streets the children screamed The lovers cried in the poets dreamed But not a word was spoken The church bells all were broken And the three men I admire most The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day, the music died And they were singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' thisll be the day that I die Thisll be the day that I die They were singin Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' thisll be the day that I die Send "American Pie" Ringtone to your Cell American Pie lyrics @ Burbler Lyrics | American Pie lyrics @ ELyrics | American Pie lyrics @ Kovideo | Lyrics and Video @ MusicBabylon | American Pie lyrics @ Songlyrics | American Pie lyrics @ ELyricsWorld
