The courtroom was adjourned

No verdict was returned

And while Lennon read a book on 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 lever was dry

And good ole boys were drinking 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...

My all time favorite comedy movie. Part 1 and 4 are my favorite.

Now the half-time air was sweet perfume

while sargeants 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
