Lyrics Summer Of '69 - Tim Timebomb

I got my first real six-string
I bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
You see
Was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
We had a band and we tried real hard.
You see
Jimmy quit, Jody got married
I should've known that we'd never get that far

Oh man, 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

Oh, summer of 69
Na na na na na na 69
It was the summer of 69

There ain't no use in complainin'
When you've got a job to do
You spent you evenings down at the drive-in
And girl you know that's when I met you
You 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, summer of '69
Na na na na na na'69
It was the summer of '69

Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever girl
Forever fuck off

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old goddamn six-string
I think about you girl, wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that it'd last forever
Oh, and I know when I held your hand girl
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Oh, summer of '69,
Na na na na na na '69
It was the summer of '69
'69 it was the the summer of '69
