lyrics

He picked her up, and she looked so nice
He thought he saw her momma cry
Her daddy said that they better not be late

They went cruisin’ down on Main St.
She moved close on the bench seat
How could they know it was gonna be their last date?

The last car at the drive in
The last stars of the picture show
They were so in love, when it started up
But it soon went cold

The last car at the drive in
She stares ahead while the engine runs
They’re still holding hands like there’s some romance
But he can tell there’s none

It was a story of teenage love
They started steamin’ the windows up
Her face was flushed and he was heavy breathin’

He’s seen it happen a hundred times
He thought he knew what he was gonna find
But when he knocked, he could tell that they weren’t leavin’

The last car at the drive in
He found love in the pale moonlight
Now time is standing still, and it always will
For those two kids tonight

The last car at the drive in
All eyes on a big blank screen
And the radio is still playing low
Just like a movie scene

I wish I could make it better
But I know how the story ends
Baby I don’t wanna be
The last car at the drive in
