Lyrics
Opens: A long, long time ago I can still remember how that music Used to make me smile
Hook: So, bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry And them good ol' boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin', "This'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die"
