Bryan Adams - Summer Of '69 Lyrics

I got my first real six-stringBought it at the five-and-dimePlayed 'til my fingers bled

It was summer of '69

Me and some guys from schoolHad a Band and we tried real hard

Jimmy quit and Jody got marriedI shualda known we'd never get farOh when I lock back now

That was seemes to last foreverAnd if I had the choiceYa - I'd always wanna be thereThose were the best days of my life(CHORUS)

Ain't no use in complainin'When you got a job to doSpent my evenin's down at the drive inAnd that's when I met youStandin on a mama's porchYou told me that you'd wait foreverOh and when you held my handI knew that it was no or neverThose were the best days of my life(Chorus) Back in Summer of '69Man we were killin' timeWe were young and restlessWe needed to unwindI guess nothin' can last forever, noAnd now the times are changin'Look at everything that's come and goneSomethimes when I play that old six-stringI think about ya wonder what went wrongStandin' on a mama's porchYou told me it would last foreverOh the way you held my handI knew that it was now or neverThose were the best days of my life(Chorus) Back in summer of '69
