Summer of 69 Lyrics by Mark Seibert

Together!

2021

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
Should've known we'd never get far
But when I look back now
The 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
Ain't no use in complaining
When you've got a job to do
Spent my еvenings down at the drive-in
And that's whеn I met you, yeah
Standing on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
And when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Yeah yeah
Back in the summer of '69
Whoa oh
Man we were killing time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothing can last forever
Forever
Yeah
Now the times are changing
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play my old six-string
I think about you, wonder what went wrong
Standing on your mama’s porch
You told me that it’d last forever
And when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Yeah yeah
Back in the summer of '69
Yeah
It was the summer of ’69
Yeah yeah
Me and my baby in '69
Whoa oh
It was the summer
The summer, the summer of '69
Yeah
Come on
