American Pie Lyrics
A long long time ago I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile
And I knew that if I had my chance
I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
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 'n roll
And 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
Cuz 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 that I was out of luck
The day the music died
I started singing
Bye bye Miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin' this will be the day that I die
This will 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
Well, 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
Well now 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 the most
The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died
They started singing
Bye bye Miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin' this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
Bye bye Miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin' this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
We started singin'
We started singin'
We started singin

It means whatever you want to mean. I am sure when McLean wrote it, he didn't know what some of the lines meant either, they just come, especially a song like this.
It's a song about Buddy Hackett. It's also the longest top ten song in history.
America's funeral hymn, The song of Moses, American Pie, and Armageddon
IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE SONG AMERICAN PIE IS ABOUT MISS AMERICA, NOT MISS BUDDY HOLLY.
The key to unlocking the hidden prophecy of 'American Pie, is the Bible.'
THE BIBLICAL PROPHECIES HIDDEN IN THE LYRICS OF THE SONG "AMERICAN PIE" ARE COMING TO PASS, SO THEREFORE IT MUST BE TRUE!
On the Capitol Record, Silver Spotlight series 45 rpm recording of the song American Pie, If you look very carefully at the record's label, you will find the words printed, 'Yahweh Tunes Inc.'... YAHWEH is the ancient name of the God of the Bible. The record label's own words, give the world legal notice that the song 'American Pie is in fact God's tune, or God's song.'
Someone from 'behind the scenes,' of this recording has seen fit to have these words 'YAHWEH TUNES INC.' printed on the record's label. Also on the record's label is the words 'Mayday Music Inc.'... As we know, 'Mayday' is the word used when someone or some thing is in danger. This word 'MAYDAY' is used for international situations of distress.
The word, 'MAYDAY' gives indications that the song "American Pie" may in fact be a distress signal warning America of terrible things yet to come. You will see this as you 'learn the song.'

American Pie, is a detailed prophecy, concerning America's future, and a 'funeral hymn,' written in a 'dirge' foretelling America's death.
"Bye-bye, Miss American Pie. Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry. Those good-ole-boys were drinking, Whiskey and rye, singing, "This'll be the day that I die, This'll be the day that I die."
In the Bible God told Moses in Deuteronomy, chapter 31, to write a song. The song that Moses wrote, is recorded in Deuteronomy 32, and is commonly known as, 'the Song of Moses.' Since Moses only wrote it under God's instructions, it wasn't reallyMoses' song; the song truly belongs to God and should have been called 'God's song, or YAHWEH'S song.' God say's in Deuteronomy 31:16;
Deut. 31:16: And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.
21: And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are befallen them, that THIS SONG shall testify against them as a witness;
29: For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days.
Notice in this prophecy, that God did not say, 'a prophet would testify against them' he did not say 'the hand writing would be on the wall,' He said that a 'song would testify against the descendants of Israel, in the latter days.'
The 'latter days' is the term the Bible uses for the time, preceding and up to the 'Battle of Armageddon.'
The song that God told Moses to write is recorded in Deut. 32, and is known as 'The Song of Moses.'
The song American Pie, and The Song of Moses, are written in word symbols. American Pie tells about the last decisive struggle between, Christian America and all the heathen armies of the world, who will be gathered on America's doorstep and according to the Bible, will invade America. This final conflict is called 'The Battle of Armageddon' and/or 'THE DARK DAY OF THE LORD' in the Bible. Both of these songs, ' American Pie, and the song of Moses,' are addressed to America.
America's future is deception, war, famine, and death. American Pie foretells nuclear terrorism, phony peace talks, disarmament, and America's future invasion, which will surely come.
Now I realize at least a verse is missing...

Artist: Don McLean Lyrics
Song: American Pie Lyrics
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?
Do you believe in rock 'n 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 lennon read a book of marx,
The quartet practiced in the park,
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died.
We were singing,
"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."
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 half-time 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 singing,
"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
He was singing,
"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 singing,
"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 singing,
"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."
I was wondering if it had anything to do about a day that just passed.
The day buddy holly, The big bopper and the kid that sings La Bamba died in that plane crash.
"the day the music died they call it it just passed.

How long is it, LTX???
8min,27sec.
According to McLean himself, the song is about Buddy Holly.
Well, of course, that is part of it but there is a lot more there to analyze. My contention is that it is one of those songs that just writes itself.

I wasn't talking about how long the song was! I just wasted ten seconds of your life!
I'm glad that after reading this LTX cracked me up by mistyping "Buddy Hackett" instead of "Buddy Holly".
That was a good laught.
But this isn't so funny:

American Pie is also, in many ways, about the 60s.
