A long long time ago I can still remember how that music used to make me smile And I knew that if I had my chance I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while
Did you write the book of love and do you have faith in God above If the Bible tells you so Now do you believe in rock 'n roll and 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 cuz 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 that I was out of luck The day the music died
I started singing
Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye Singin this will be the day that I die This will be the day that I die
I met a girl who sang the blues and I asked her for some happy news But she just smiled and turned away Well, I went down to the sacred store where I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play
Well now in the streets the children screamed The lovers cried and the poets dreamed But not a word was spoken The church bells all were broken And the three men I admire the most The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died
They started singing
Bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin 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 And good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye Singin this will be the day that I die This will be the day that I die
We started singin' We started singin' We started singin'

how that music used to make me smile
And I knew that if I had my chance
I could make those people dance
and maybe they'd be happy for a while
Did you write the book of love
and do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Now do you believe in rock 'n roll
and 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
cuz 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 that I was out of luck
The day the music died
I started singing
Bye bye Miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
Singin this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
I met a girl who sang the blues
and I asked her for some happy news
But she just smiled and turned away
Well, I went down to the sacred store
where I'd heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn't play
Well now in the streets the children screamed
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire the most
The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died
They started singing
Bye bye Miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And good old boys were drinkin 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
And good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
Singin this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
