[00:00:00] Drive-In Movies And Dashboard Lights (Album Version) - Nanci Griffith

[00:00:06] Sister had a crystal voice

[00:00:08] She played a Silvertone from Montgomery Ward

[00:00:11] Baez songs in Monroe hair

[00:00:13] She sure could turn the boys' head to stare

[00:00:17] Swim wear saunter tan and haunt them

[00:00:20] That's all she learned in school

[00:00:23] Books were for other girls

[00:00:25] And the other girls were fools

[00:00:29] In Texas back in sixty-nine

[00:00:30] It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights

[00:00:44] Father waltzed her down the aisle

[00:00:46] 'Cause college didn't suit her style

[00:00:49] The sad truth was that she could barely read

[00:00:52] But if you told dear Father

[00:00:53] He wouldn't believe you

[00:00:55] The telephone rang it drove Mother insane

[00:00:58] From the hearts left on the shelf

[00:01:01] Sister's gone and she won't be home

[00:01:03] 'Cause she didn't take care of herself

[00:01:07] In Texas back in sixty-nine

[00:01:08] It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights

[00:01:17] Where is she now

[00:01:18] The backseat Queen of fraternity

[00:01:22] Where is she now

[00:01:24] She is heavy of thigh and light on integrity

[00:01:28] Someone should've told her

[00:01:30] When beauty's all you offer

[00:01:33] Too soon the world's discover

[00:01:35] That your beauty's gone

[00:01:39] (It's gone)

[00:01:42] Mother can't you hear your daughter carying

[00:01:47] Father wake up her youth is dying

[00:01:53] Her kids are grown husband's gone away

[00:01:58] It's shame 'cause she had such a lovely face

[00:02:04] Can't you see she need more

[00:02:07] Than "Oh what a pretty child"

[00:02:10] You never taught her truth from lie

[00:02:12] All you told her was to smile

[00:02:16] In Texas back in sixty-nine

[00:02:17] It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights

[00:02:26] Where is she now

[00:02:28] The backseat Queen of fraternity

[00:02:31] Where is she now

[00:02:33] She is heavy of thigh and light on integrity

[00:02:37] Someone should've told her

[00:02:39] When beauty's all you offer

[00:02:42] Too soon the world's discover

[00:02:44] That your beauty's gone

[00:02:47] (It's gone)

[00:02:51] In Texas back in sixty-nine

[00:02:53] It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights
