i got my first real six-string bought it at the five and dime played it till my fingers bled it was the summer of `69 me and some guys from school had a band and we tried real hard jimmy quit and joey got married i shoulda 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`d always wanna be there those were the best days of my life back in the summer of `69 ain`t no use in complaining when you got a job to do spent my evenings down at the drive-in and that`s when i met 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 back in the summer of `69 man we were killining time we were young and restless we needed to unwind i guess nothin` can last forever - forever, no and now the times are changing look at everything that`s come and gone sometimes i play that old six-string i think about ya wonder what went wrong standing on your mama`s porch you told me it would last forever the way you held my hand i knew that it was now or never those were the best days of my life back in the summer of `69
