Tori Amos - American Pie lyrics

In the streets the children screamed

The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed

And not a word was spoken

The church bells all were broken

The three men I admired most

The father, son, and the holy ghost

They took the last train for the coast

The day the music died

They were singing bye bye miss american pie

I drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry

Them good ol' boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die

And the three men I admired most

The father, son, and the holy ghost

They took the last train for the coast

The day the music died
