1882
And they were singing…
1884
Bye bye Miss American pie…
1885
Drove my Chevy to the levee
1886
But the levee was dry;
1887
And them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye,
1888
Singing, “This’ll be the day that I die,”
1889
Are we at the end?
1890
Not quite, Beck. One more line, and all of us in unison:
“This’ll be the day that I die.”
There, that does it for “American Pie.” Anybody up for Harry Chapin’s “Taxi”?
1891
Damn, we’ve been on that song since 1765!
It was raining hard in Frisco…
1892
I needed one more fare to make my night.
1893
A lady up ahead waved to flag me down,
1894
She got in at the light.
1895
Oh, where you going to, my lady blue?
1896
It’s a shame you ruined your gown in the rain.
1897
She just looked out the window, she said,
1898
“Sixteen Parkside Lane”
1899
Something about her was familiar;
1900
I could swear I’d seen her face before,
1901
But she said, “I’m sure you’re mistaken,”
1902
And she didn’t say anything more.
