American Pie - Madonna
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
We 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
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
