I got my first real six-string Bought it at the five-and-dime Played 'til my fingers bled It was summer of '69
Oh when I look back now The summer seemed to last forever And if I had the choice Ya - I'd always wanna be there Those were the best days of my life
oh yeah, back in the summer of ´69 ooooh!
Man we were killin' time We were young and restless We needed to unwind I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no
oh oh oh oh oh oh.. back in the summer of '69 oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah back in the summer of '69 '69 '69 back in the summer of '69 oh oh oh oh oh oh .... back in the summer of '69
