Written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance Summer of ’69 i got my first real six-string bought it at the five-and-dime played it til my fingers bled it was the summer of ’69 me and some guys from school had a band and we tried real hard jimmy quit and jody got married i shoulda known we’d never get far oh when i look back now - that summer seemed to last forever and if i had the choice - ya - i’d always wanna be there those were the best days of my life ain’t no use in complainin’ when you got a job to do spent my evenin’s down at the drive-in and that’s when i met you standin’ on your mama’s porch - you told me that you’d wait forever oh and when you held my hand - i knew that it was now or never those were the best days of my life - back in the summer of ’69 man we were killin’ time - we were young and restless we needed to unwind - i guess nothin’ can last forever and now the times are changin’ look at everything that’s come and gone sometimes when i play that old six-string i think about ya wonder what went wrong standin’ on your mama’s porch - you told me it would last forever oh the way you held my hand - i knew that it was now or never those were the best days of my life - back in the summer of ’69 © Badams Music Limited
