Minä, Manta ja Onni

de Esa Pakarinen

I got my first real six string
Bought it at the five and dime
Played it til my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I should've known we'd never get far

And when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah I always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Oh yeah

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you - yeah

refrain:
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Oh yeah
Back in the summer of '69

Man we were killing time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no...

And now the times are changing
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six string
I think about you, wonder what went wrong

refrain

Oh yeah
Back in the summer of '69
Oh yeah
Me and my baby 69
Oh yeah
