Drive-In Movies And Dashboard Lights(Album Version)

歌詞

Sister had a crystal voice She played a Silverstone from Montgomery Ward Baez songs and Monroe hair She sure could turn the boys heads to stare Swimwear 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 '69 was drive in movies and dashboard lights Father waltzed her down the aisle Cause college didn't suit her style The sad truth was she could barely read But if you told dear father, well he wouldn't believe you The telephone rang and drove mother insane From all the hearts left on the shelf Sisters gone and she won't be home Cause she didn't take care of herself Texas back in '69 was drive in movies and dashboard lights Where is she now The backseat queen of fraternity Where is she now She's heavy on thigh And light on integrity Someone should have told her When beauty's all you offer How soon the world discovers That your beauty's gone Its gone Mother can't you hear your daughter crying Father wake up her youth is dying The kids are gone Husbands gone away And its 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 '69 was drive in movies and dashboard lights Where is she now The backseat queen of fraternity Where is she now She's heavy on thigh And light on integrity Someone should have told her When beauty's all you offer How soon the world discovers That your beauty's gone Its gone Texas back in '69 was drive in movies and dashboard lights.
