Bowling For Soup

Bowling For Soup - Summer of '69 lyrics

Your rating:

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 and Jody got married 

I shoulda known we'd never get far 

But when I look back now 

That summer seemed to last forever 

And if I had the choice 

Ya - I'd always wanna be there 

Those were the best days of my life 



There ain't no use in complainin'

When you got a job to do

Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in

And that's when I met you - ya



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



Man we were killin' time

We were young and restless

We needed to unwind

I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no...



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 ya'n wonder what went wrong



Standin' on your mama's porch that's right

You told me it would last forever

Oh the way you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life



Back in the summer of '69
