A long long time ago
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But february made me shiver with every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried when
I read about his widowed bride
And something touched me deep inside the day the music died
So bye bye Miss American Pie drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin' this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die
Did you write the Book of Love and do you have faith in God above if the bible tells you so
Ah do you believe in rock n' roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow
Well I know that you're in love with him
'Cos I saw you dancin' in the gym
You both kicked off your shoes
Man I dig those rhythm and blues
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck the day the music died
I started singin' bye bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin' this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
Now for ten years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
But that's not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the King and Queen in a coat you borrowed from James Dean
And a voice uh that came from you and me
Oh and while the King was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned now a verdict was returned
And while Lennon read a book on Marx
The court kept practice in the part
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died
We were singin' bye bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin' this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
Bye bye Miss American Pie drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin' this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
