I got my first real six string I got my first real six string Bought it at the five and dime Bought it at the five and dime Eu tenho a minha primeira seqüência de seis reais Played it till my fingers bled Played it till my fingers bled Comprou-a e cinco centavos Was the summer of '69 Was the summer of '69 Joguei até meus dedos sangrados Me and some guys from school Me and some guys from school Era o verão de '69 Had a band and we tried real hard Had a band and we tried real hard Me and some guys from school Jimmy quit and Jody got married Jimmy quit and Jody got married Tinha uma banda e nós tentamos real hard I shoulda known we'd never get far I shoulda known we'd never get far Jimmy quit e Jody casei Oh when I look back now Oh when I look back now Eu devo saber que nunca chegar longe That summer seemed to last forever That summer seemed to last forever Oh quando eu olho para trás agora And if I had the choice And if I had the choice Naquele verão parecia durar para sempre Ya - I'd always wanna be there Ya - I'd always wanna be there E se eu tivesse a escolha Those were the best days of my life Those were the best days of my life Ya - Eu sempre quero estar lá Ain't no use in complainin' Ain't no use in complainin' Aqueles foram os melhores dias da minha vida When you got a job to do When you got a job to do Ain't No Use em complainin ' Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in Quando você tem um trabalho a fazer And that's when I met you - ya And that's when I met you - ya Gasto minhas noites no drive-in Standin' on your mama's porch Standin' on your mama's porch E isso é quando eu te conheci - ya You told me that you'd wait forever You told me that you'd wait forever Standin 'on your mama's porch Oh and when you held my hand Oh and when you held my hand Você me disse que você iria esperar para sempre I knew that it was now or never I knew that it was now or never Ah, e quando você segurou minha mão Those were the best days of my life Those were the best days of my life Eu sabia que era agora ou nunca Back in the summer of '69 Back in the summer of '69 Aqueles foram os melhores dias da minha vida Man we were killin' time Man we were killin' time Back in the summer of '69 We were young and restless We were young and restless Man estávamos Killin 'Time We needed to unwind We needed to unwind Nós éramos jovens e inquietos I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no... I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no... Nós precisávamos para descontrair And now the times are changin' And now the times are changin' Acho que nada pode durar para sempre - para sempre, não ... Look at everything that's come and gone Look at everything that's come and gone E agora os tempos são changin ' Sometimes when I play that old six string Sometimes when I play that old six string Olhe para tudo o que veio e se foi I think about you wonder what went wrong I think about you wonder what went wrong Às vezes, quando eu jogo essa seqüência de seis anos Standin' on your mama's porch Standin' on your mama's porch Eu penso em você saber o que correu mal You told me that it'd last forever You told me that it'd last forever Standin 'on your mama's porch Oh and when you held my hand Oh and when you held my hand Você me disse que ia durar para sempre I knew that it was now or never I knew that it was now or never Ah, e quando você segurou minha mão Those were the best days of my life Those were the best days of my life Eu sabia que era agora ou nunca Back in the summer of '69 Back in the summer of '69 Aqueles foram os melhores dias da minha vida
