Friday night it was late, I was walking you home We got down to the gate, I was dreaming of the night Would it turn out right? How to tell you girl, I want to build my world around you Wanna tell you that it's true I wanna make you understand I'm talking about a lifetime plan Well that's the way it began, we were hand-in-hand Glen Miller's band was better than before We yelled and screamed for more And those Porter's tunes made us dance across the room It ended all too soon On the way back home I promised you'd never be alone Hurry, don't be late I can't hardly wait I said to myself when we're old We'll go dancing in the dark, walking through the park And reminiscing Friday night it was late, I was walking you home We got down to the gate, I was dreaming of the night Would it turn out right? Now as the years roll on, each time we hear our favorite song The memories come along Older times we're missing, spending the hours reminiscing Hurry, don't be late I can't hardly wait I said to myself when we're old We'll go dancing in the dark, walking through the park And reminiscing Songwriters: Graeham George Goble / Graham George Goble Reminiscing lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc

Pack up all your things We're gonna be leavin' Sooner than I thought Take the things you bought Clouds are gathering Say goodbye to all your friends We're gonna be sorry For a while that's how it goes But then again, who knows About the rain I'm steppin' out I'm moving on I'm gonna see the world Like a rolling stone Steppin' out I'm gonna be somebody Ooh, I'm steppin' out Did you hear what he said? He said they sold me down the river They thought I, thought I was a fool They said the rain would fall What did they know? Then I saw your face Heard the song that you were singing Though I thought I knew the words The tune was quite absurd and out of key Doo dah dah dee I'm steppin' out I'm moving on I'm gonna see the world Like a rolling stone Steppin' out I'm gonna be somebody Ooh, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out Steppin' out Steppin' out Steppin' out (Aaa aaa aaa) Don't know where I'm going Gonna see the world, gonna be somebody Don't know where I'm going I'm just steppin' out I'm steppin' out (Aaa aaa aaa) I'm steppin' out (Aaa aaa aaa) Writer(s): Jeff Lynne

Don McLean
A long long time ago I can still remember how That music used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those people dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while But February made me shiver With every paper I'd deliver Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride Something touched me deep inside The day the music died So Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry And them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Did you write the book of love And do you have faith in God above If the Bible tells you so? Do you believe in rock and roll? 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 'Cause 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 I was out of luck The day the music died I started singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry And them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Now, for ten years we've been on our own And moss grows fat on a rolling stone But, that's not how it used to be When the jester sang for the king and queen In a coat he borrowed from James Dean And a voice that came from you and me Oh and while the king was looking down The jester stole his thorny crown The courtroom was adjourned No verdict was returned And while Lennon read a book on Marx The quartet practiced in the park And we sang dirges in the dark The day the music died We were singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry Them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye And singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Helter skelter in a summer swelter The birds flew off with a fallout shelter Eight miles high and falling fast It landed foul on the grass The players tried for a forward pass With the jester on the sidelines in a cast Now the half-time air was sweet perfume While sergeants played a marching tune We all got up to dance Oh, but we never got the chance 'Cause the players tried to take the field The marching band refused to yield Do you recall what was revealed The day the music died? We started singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry Them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye And singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Oh, and there we were all in one place A generation lost in space With no time left to start again So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick Jack Flash sat on a candlestick 'Cause fire is the devil's only friend Oh and as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched in fists of rage No angel born in Hell Could break that Satan's spell And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrificial rite I saw Satan laughing with delight The day the music died He was singin' Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry Them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll 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 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 And 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 most The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died And they were singing Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry And them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die They were singing Bye, bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry Them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die Songwriters: Don Mclean American Pie lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group

I've been looking at people And how they change with the times And lately all I've been seein' of people Throwin' love away and losing their minds Or maybe it's me that's gone crazy Cause I can't understand why All these people keep hurting each other When good love is so hard to come by So what's the glory in livin' Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore And if love never lasts forever Tell me, what's forever for? Well I've been listening to people And they say love is the key It's not my way to let them lead me astray It's only that I want to believe But I see love-hungry people Trying their best to survive While in their hands is a dying romance And they don't even try to keep it alive So what's the glory in livin' Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore And if love never lasts forever Tell me, what's forever for? And if love never lasts forever Tell me, what's forever for? Songwriters: Rafe Van Hoy What's Forever For lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC
