American Pie
[00:00.43] A long, long time ago
[00:02.82] I can still remember
[00:04.94] How that music
[00:07.32] Used to make me smile
[00:09.63] And I knew that
[00:11.76] If I had my chance
[00:14.14] I could make
[00:15.21] Those people dance
[00:17.07] And maybe they'd be happy

[00:39.93] Did you write
[00:42.32] The book of love?
[00:43.66] And do you have faith
[00:45.80] In God above
[00:47.91] If the Bible tells you so?
[00:52.16] Now do you believe in
[00:55.35] Rock 'n' roll?

[01:19.54] Man, I dig
[01:20.25] Those rhythm and blues
[01:22.90] I was a lonely teenage
[01:25.30] Bronking buck
[01:26.89] With a pink carnation
[01:28.75] And a pick-up truck
[01:30.62] But I knew

[02:08.26] I met a girl who sang the blues
[02:11.98] And I asked her for
[02:13.84] Some happy news
[02:15.96] But she just smiled
[02:17.83] And turned away
[02:20.24] Well, I went down to
[02:22.88] The sacred store
[02:25.01] Where I'd heard the music
[02:26.87] Years before
[02:28.99] But the man there
[02:30.06] Said the music wouldn't play
[02:35.64] Well now, in the streets
[02:38.02] The children screamed
[02:40.15] The lovers cried
[02:42.01] And the poets dreamed
[02:43.88] But not a word was spoken
[02:47.06] The church bells all were broken
[02:51.04] And the three men
