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

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

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

Baez songs in Monroe hair[00:00:12]

She sure could turn the boys' head to stare[00:00:14]

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

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

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

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

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

It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights[00:00:31]

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

'Cause college didn't suit her style[00:00:47]

The sad truth was that she could barely read[00:00:50]

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

He wouldn't believe you[00:00:54]

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

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

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

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

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

It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights[00:01:09]

Where is she now [00:01:17]

The backseat Queen of fraternity[00:01:19]

Where is she now [00:01:22]

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

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

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

Too soon the world's discover that your beauty's gone[00:01:33]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

It was drive-in movies and dashboard lights[00:02:18]

Where is she now [00:02:26]

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

Where is she now [00:02:31]

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

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

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

Too soon the world's discover that your beauty's gone[00:02:42]

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

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

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