Just got home from Illinois,
Lock the front door, oh boy! Got to sit down, Take a rest on the porch. Imagination sets in, Pretty soon I'm singin', Doo, doo, doo Lookin' out my back door. There's a giant doing cartwheels, A statue wearin' high heels. Look at all the happy creatures Dancing on the lawn. A dinosaur Victrola Listenin' to Buck Owens. Doo, doo, doo Lookin' out my back door. Tambourines and elephants Are playin' in the band. Won't you take a ride On the flyin' spoon? Wond'rous apparition Provided by magician. Doo, doo, doo Lookin' out my back door. Tambourines and elephants Are playin' in the band. Won't you take a ride On the flyin' spoon? Bother me tomorrow, Today, I'll buy no sorrows. Doo, doo, doo Lookin' out my back door. Forward troubles Illinois, Lock the front door, oh boy! Look at all the happy creatures Dancing on the lawn. Bother me tomorrow, Today, I'll buy no sorrows. Doo, doo, doo Lookin' out my back door. |

Now, I've been happy lately,
Thinkin' about the good things to come And I believe it could be; Something good has begun. Oh, I've been smilin' lately, Dreamin' about the world as one And I believe it could be; Some day it's going to come 'Cause out on the edge of darkness, There rides a peace train. Oh, peace train take this country. Come take me home again. Now, I've been smiling lately, Thinkin' about the good things to come And I believe it could be; Something good has begun. Oh, peace train soundin' louder. Glide on the peace train. Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah. Come on, now peace train. Yes, peace train holy roller. Everyone jump on the peace train. Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah. Come on, now peace train. Get your bags together. Go bring your good friends too Because it's gettin' nearer; It soon will be with you. Now, come and join the livin'. It's not so far from you And it's gettin' nearer; Soon it will all be true. Oh, peace train soundin' louder. Glide on the peace train. Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah. Come on, now peace train. Peace train. Now, I've been cryin' lately, Thinkin' about the world as it is. Why must we go on hating? Why can't we live in bliss? 'Cause out on the edge of darkness, There rides a peace train. Oh, peace train take this country. Come take me home again. Oh, peace train soundin' louder. Glide on the peace train. Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah. Come on, now peace train. Yes, peace train holy roller. Everyone jump on the peace train. Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah. Come on, come on, come on. Yeah, come on, peace train. Yes, it's the peace train. Ooh, ah, ee, ah, ooh, ah.

J5: Stop! Nanana! You'd better save it!
Stop, stop, stop, you'd better save it! Michael: When we played tag in grade school You wanted to be It. But chasing boys was just a fad You crossed your heart you'd quit. When we grew up you traded Your promise for my ring Now just like back to grade school You're doing the same old thing! CHORUS: Stop! The love you save may be your own! Darling, take it slow Or some day you'll be all alone. You'd better stop the love you save may be your own! Darling, look both ways before you cross me You're headed for the danger zone. Michael: I'm the one who loves you! I'm the one you need! Jermaine: Those other guys will put you down As soon as they succeed! Michael: They'll ruin your reputation! They'll label you a flirt! Jermaine: The way they talk about you They'll turn your name to dirt, oh! Second verse: Michael: Isaac said he kissed you Beneath the apple tree When Benjie held your hand he felt E-lec-tri-ci-tee! When Alexander called you He said he rang your chimes. Christopher discovered You're way ahead of your times! REPEAT CHORUS BRIDGE: J5: Slow down. Slow down. Slow down. Slow down. Michael: S is for "Save it" T is for "Take it slow" O is for "Oh, no!" P is for "Please, please, don't go!" Jermaine: The love you save may be your own... Michael: Some day you may be all alone... Jermaine: Stop it! Michael: Save it, girl! Jermaine: Or some day you'll be all alone. Michael: You'd better stop! the love you save may be your own! Jermaine: Please, please Or some day, some day baby, You'll be all alone Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed. Michael: Stop! The love you save may be your own... |

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 But 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 old boys were drinkin' 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? Now 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 Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye And 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 rollin' 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 Lenin read a book on Marx A 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 old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye 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 halftime air was sweet perfume While the 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 old boys were drinkin' 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 I started singin' it singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye And 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 singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin' "This'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die" They were singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye And singin' "This'll be the day that I die" |
