Parody of "Summer of '69" by Bryan Adams
(Gen. 5:1-32, Romans 10:6-9)

You got to learn a little history -- Oldest man in Bible times
Name was called Methuselah -- Was nine hundred and sixty-nine
We had some guys come close -- Almost ran for a thousand yards
Didn't they quit till they got buried -- They should've known it just was too hard
When we look back now -- Those fellas seemed to live forever
And you just get annoyed -- cause you don't wanna believe it
Those guys were blessed with such long lives
Ain't no use in explainin' -- if you're gonna doubt the truth
Spent your life doubtin' the Bible -- and that's the fountain of youth - yeah
Standin' knockin' on your door -- He told ya you could live forever
I hope you understand -- the truth is it's now or never
These are the last days of your life
That should be somethin' that sticks in your mind
Yeah, we're runnin' out of time -- But the young forget that they need eternal life
To get somethin' that last forever -- forever -- Whoa! Yeah!
And all the time we're agin' -- Look at every wrinkle comin' on
Some guys don't even live to be 16 -- Think about that while I end this song
Standin' knockin' on your door -- He told you how to live forever
I hope you understand -- Hebrews three says it's now or never
These are the last days of your life. That should be somethin' that sticks in your mind
