Bye bye Miss American Pie.
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry.
And those good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye;
Singing “This’ll be the day that I die”.

I hope I remembered that correctly because I didn’t look up the lyrics.
I met a girl who sang the Blues, and I asked her for some happy news
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 lover's 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
