Lyrics
0:00A long long time ago
0:03I can still remember how that music used to
0:08Make me smile
0:11And I knew that if I had my chance
0:15I could make those people dance
0:18And maybe they'd be happy for a while
0:40Did you write the book of love
0:43And do you have faith in God above
0:48If the Bible tells you so
0:53Now do you believe in Rock 'n' roll
0:57And can music save your mortal soul
1:01And can you teach me how to dance real slow
1:08Well I know that you're in love with him
1:12'Cos I saw you dancin' in the gym
1:16You both kicked off your shoes
1:20Man I dig those rhythm and blues
1:23I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
1:28With a pink carnation and a pick-up truck
1:31But I knew that I was out of luck
1:35The day the music died
1:42I started singing
1:43Bye bye Miss American Pie
1:47Drove my Chevy to the levee
1:49But the levee was dry
1:51And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
1:54Singing this'll be the day that I die
1:59This'll be the day that I die
2:09I met a girl who sang the blues
2:12And I asked her for some happy news
2:16But she just smiled and turned away
2:21I went down to the sacred store
2:26Where I'd heard the music years before
2:30But the man there said the music wouldn't play
2:37Well now in the streets the children screamed
2:41The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
2:45But not a word was spoken
2:49Tho church bells all were broken
2:52And the three men I admire the most
2:56The Father Son and the Holy Ghost
3:01They caught the last train for the coast
3:04The day the music died
3:11We started singin'
3:12Bye bye Miss American Pie
3:16Drove my Chevy to the levee
3:18But the levee was dry
3:20And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
3:24Singing this'll be the day that I die
3:28This'll be the day that I die
3:46Bye bye Miss American Pie
3:49Drove my Chevy to the levee
3:51But the levee was dry
3:53And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
3:56Singing this'll be the day that I die
4:01This'll be the day that I die
4:05We started singin'
4:09We started singin'
4:13We started singin'
4:16We started singin'
A long long time ago I can still remember how that music used to Make me smile And I knew that if I had my chance I could make those people dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while Did you write the book of love And do you have faith in God above If the Bible tells you so Now do you believe in Rock 'n' roll And 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 'Cos 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 pick-up truck But I knew that I was out of luck The day the music died I started singing Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singing this'll be the day that I die This'll 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 I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play Well now in the streets the children screamed The lovers cried and the poets dreamed But not a word was spoken Tho church bells all were broken And the three men I admire the most The Father Son and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died We started singin' Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singing this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singing this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die We started singin' We started singin' We started singin' We started singin'
