Summer Of '69 - Remastered 2019

Whoa

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five and dime
Played it 'til my fingers bleed
It 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 should've known we'd never get far

Oh, when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah, I always wanna be there

Those were the best days of my life
Whoa, yeah
Back in the summer of '69 ('69, '69)
Whoa
Whoa, yeah
Back in the summer of '69 ('69, '69)
Whoa

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evening's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you, yeah
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh, and you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life
Whoa, yeah
Back in the summer of '69
Whoa, yeah (whoa, yeah)
Whoa, yeah (whoa, yeah), whoa, yeah (whoa, yeah)
Whoa

Man, we were killin' times
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind (unwind)
I guess nothing can last forever, forever and now
Yeah

Whoa, yeah

(Back in the summer of '69)
(Whoa, yeah)
Back in the summer of '69
Whoa, yeah
Back in the summer of '69
