Lyric
.
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.
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,
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died.
So bye bye, Miss American Pie.
Drove my Chevy to
