以下是《American Pie》的歌詞：
Chorus:
American pie, that's what I want
American pie, gonna make it some day
Verse 1:
Back in 1972, it was a sad affair
Peggy in the pan, Dean was in the car
Billy Mumy was a stranger to this world
When they dug that hole and left him under
Chorus:
American pie, that's what I want
American pie, gonna make it some day
Verse 2:
As I roamed through the swamps with nothing on my mind
With my skinny jeans and my Harley and my guitar
There was no hope, no glory in the american dream
When the sleigh bells were ringing in the nickel and dime
Chorus:
American pie, that's what I want
American pie, gonna make it some day
Bridge:
So many memories of my childhood dreams
In the sunny days of summer when I would run and play
And when the radio would always seem to be on the same song
But now it's all so different, and that's the way it goes
Chorus:
American pie, gonna make it some day
(So let it roll)
American pie, gonna make it some day
(Gonna take my chances)
Gonna make it some day (Yeah)
Outro:
Gonna take my chances, gonna make it some day (Yeah)
