Summer Of 69` — текст песни (Bryan Adams)

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played `til my fingers bled
It was summer of `69

Me and some guys from school
Had a Band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shualda known we`d never get far

Oh when I lock back now
That was seemes to last forever
And if I had the choice
Ya - I`d always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

(CHORUS)

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

Standin on a mama`s porch
You told me that you`d wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was no or never
Those were the best days of my life

(Chorus) Back in Summer of `69

Man we were killin` time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin` can last forever, no

And now the times are changin`
Look at everything that`s come and gone
Somethimes when I play that old six-string
I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin` on a mama`s porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

(Chorus) Back in summer of `69
