Summer Of '69 (Live - Bare Bones) - Bryan Adams
Lyrics by:Bryan Adams/Jim Vallance
Composed by:Bryan Adams/Jim Vallance
I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it 'till 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
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
Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin'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
And when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
