Summer of '69 (Live at Sydney Opera House)

I got my first real six string Bought it at the five and dime Played it 'til my fingers bled Was the summer of '69 Me and some guys from school Had a band and we tried real hard Jimmy quit, Jody got married I shoulda known we'd never get far But 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 evening's down at the drivе-in And that's when I met you, yeah Standin' on your mama's porch You told mе that you'd wait forever And when you held my hand I knew that it was now or never Those were the best days of my life Oh yeah, it was the summer of '69 Man we were killin' time We were young and restless We needed to unwind I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, oh And now the times are changin' Look at everything that's come and gone Sometimes when I play my old six string I think about you, wonder what went wrong 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) Those were the best days of my life Hey yeah, it was the summer of '69 Hey, it was the summer of '69 Oh yeah, it's me and my baby in '69 That's how it all started, right there It was the summer Yeah, the summer of '69 Should have played that song earlier too!
