Drive-In Movies and Dashboard Lights
作詞：Nanci Griffith
Sister had a crystal voice
She played a Silver tone from Montgomery Ward
Baez songs in Monroe hair
She sure could turn the boys' heads to stare
Swim wear saunter, tan and haunt them
Was all she learned in school
Books were for the other girls
And the other girls were fools
Texas back in sixty-nine
It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights
Father waltzed her down the aisle
'Cause college didn't suit her style
The sad truth was that she could barely read
But, if you'd told dear father, well he wouldn't believe you
The telephone rang, it drove mother insane
From the hearts left on the shelf
Sister's gone and she won't be home
'Cause she didn't take care of herself
Texas back in sixty-nine
It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights
Where is she now?
The backseat queen of fraternity
Where is she now?
She is heavy of thigh and light on integrity

Someone should've told her
When beauty's all you offer
How soon the world discovers that your
Beauty's gone, it's gone
Mother can't you hear your daughter crying?
Father wake up her youth is dying
Her kids are grown, husband's gone away
And it's a shame 'Cause she had such a lovely face
Can't you see she needed more
Than, 'Oh, what a pretty child'?
You never taught her truth from lie
All you told her was to smile
Texas back in sixty-nine
It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights
Where is she now?
The backseat queen of fraternity
Where is she now?
She is heavy of thigh and light on integrity
Someone should've told her
When beauty's all you offer
How soon the world discovers that your
Beauty's gone, it's gone
Texas back in sixty-nine
It was drive-in movies and dashboard, lights
