《American Pie》歌词

[00:00:01] A long long time ago

[00:00:04] I can still remember

[00:00:07] How that music used to make me smile

[00:00:13] And I knew if I had my chance

[00:00:18] That I could make those people dance

[00:00:21] And maybe they'd be happy for a while

[00:00:27] But February made me shiver

[00:00:30] With every paper I'd deliver

[00:00:34] Bad news on the doorstep

[00:00:37] I couldn't take one more step

[00:00:40] I can't remember if I cried

[00:00:44] When I read about his widowed bride

[00:00:48] But something touched me deep inside

[00:00:51] The day the music died

[00:00:59] So bye-bye Miss American Pie

[00:01:03] Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

[00:01:09] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye

[00:01:13] Singin' "This'll be the day that I die

[00:01:18] This'll be the day that I die"

[00:01:25] Did you write the book of love

[00:01:27] And do you have faith in God above

[00:01:32] If the Bible tells you so

[00:01:36] Now do you believe in rock and roll

[00:01:40] Can music save your mortal soul

[00:01:43] And can you teach me how to dance real slow

[00:01:50] Well I know that you're in love with him

[00:01:54] 'Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym

[00:01:58] You both kicked off your shoes

[00:02:01] Man I dig those rhythm and blues

[00:02:04] I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck

[00:02:08] With a pink carnation and a pickup truck

[00:02:11] But I knew I was out of luck

[00:02:15] The day the music died

[00:02:21] I started singin' bye-bye Miss American Pie

[00:02:25] Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

[00:02:29] Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye

[00:02:32] Singin' "This'll be the day that I die

[00:02:36] This'll be the day that I die"

[00:02:41] Now for ten years we've been on our own

[00:02:45] And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone

[00:02:48] But that's not how it used to be

[00:02:53] When the jester sang for the king and queen

[00:02:57] In a coat he borrowed from James Dean

[00:03:01] And a voice that came from you and me

[00:03:07] Oh and while the king was looking down

[00:03:11] The jester stole his thorny crown

[00:03:14] The courtroom was adjourned

[00:03:17] No verdict was returned

[00:03:21] And while Lenin read a book on Marx

[00:03:25] The quartet practiced in the park

[00:03:28] And we sang dirges in the dark

[00:03:32] The day the music died

[00:03:38] We were singin' bye-bye Miss American Pie

[00:03:42] Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

[00:03:45] Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye

[00:03:49] Singin' "This'll be the day that I die

[00:03:53] This'll be the day that I die"

[00:03:58] Helter skelter in a summer swelter

[00:04:01] The birds flew off with a fallout shelter

[00:04:05] Eight miles high and falling fast

[00:04:10] It landed foul on the grass

[00:04:13] The players tried for a forward pass

[00:04:17] With the jester on the sidelines in a cast

[00:04:24] The halftime air was sweet perfume

[00:04:28] While the sergeants played a marching tune

[00:04:31] We all got up to dance

[00:04:34] Oh but we never got the chance

[00:04:37] 'Cause the players tried to take the field

[00:04:41] The marching band refused to yield

[00:04:45] Do you recall what was revealed

[00:04:48] The day the music died

[00:04:54] We started singin' bye-bye Miss American Pie

[00:04:58] Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

[00:05:02] Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye

[00:05:05] And singin' "This'll be the day that I die

[00:05:09] This'll be the day that I die"

[00:05:14] Oh and there we were all in one place

[00:05:18] A generation lost in space

[00:05:21] With no time left to start again

[00:05:26] So come on Jack be nimble Jack be quick

[00:05:30] Jack Flash sat on a candlestick

[00:05:33] 'Cause fire is the only devil's friend

[00:05:40] Oh and as I watched him on the stage

[00:05:44] My hands were clenched in fists of rage

[00:05:47] No angel born in Hell

[00:05:51] Could break that Satan's spell

[00:05:54] And as the flames climbed high into the night

[00:05:58] To light the sacrificial rite

[00:06:01] I saw Satan laughing with delight

[00:06:04] The day the music died

[00:06:10] He was singin' bye-bye Miss American Pie

[00:06:14] Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

[00:06:18] Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye

[00:06:21] And singin' "This'll be the day that I die

[00:06:25] This'll be the day that I die"

[00:06:31] I met a girl who sang the blues

[00:06:35] And I asked her for some happy news

[00:06:39] She just smiled and turned away

[00:06:45] I went down to the sacred store

[00:06:48] Where I'd heard the music years before

[00:06:52] But the man there said the music wouldn't play

[00:06:59] And in the streets the children screamed

[00:07:03] The lovers cried and the poets dreamed

[00:07:06] But not a word was spoken

[00:07:09] The church bells all were broken

[00:07:15] And the three men I admire most

[00:07:19] The Father Son and the Holy Ghost

[00:07:23] They caught the last train for the coast

[00:07:27] The day the music died

[00:07:34] And they were singin' bye-bye Miss American Pie

[00:07:41] Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

[00:07:46] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye

[00:07:50] Singin' "This'll be the day that I die

[00:07:56] This'll be the day that I die"

[00:08:01] They were singin' bye-bye Miss American Pie

[00:08:05] Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

[00:08:09] Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye

[00:08:13] And singin' "This'll be the day that I die"
