THE OLD DRIVE-IN PICTURE SHOW

(Chorus)
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE OLD DRIVE-IN PICTURE SHOW
GAVE INTO PARKING LOTS, BUSINESS PARKS AND CONDOS
IS THAT ANOTHER PIECE OF AMERICA THAT’S GONE
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE DRIVE-IN PICTURE SHOW

WHEN I THINK OF THE CLASSIC FILMS
THAT SHOWN ON THAT BIG SCREEN
IT’S SAD TO THINK THAT MOVIES HERE, ARE NO LONGER SEEN
YEARS AGO ON SATURDAY NIGHT, THIS WAS THE PALCE TO BE
NOW THE SNACK BAR AND ADMISSION BOOTH
ARE ALL CHOKED WITH WEEDS

I FEEL THE NIGHT MOOD AND SMELL THE POPCORN IN THE AIR
STATIONWAGONS WITH FAMILIES AND KIDS
AND BACK SEAT LOVE AFFAIRS
SOME MIGHT HAVE BEEN HAPPY
SOME MIGHT HAVE ENDED IN DESPAIR
IF IT WEREN’T FOR LOVE ON THOSE STARRY NIGHTS
SOME OF US MIGHT NOT BE HERE

(Chorus)
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE OLD DRIVE-IN PICTURE SHOW
GAVE INTO PARKING LOTS, BUSINESS PARKS AND CONDOS
IS THAT ANOTHER PIECE OF AMERICA THAT’S GONE
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE DRIVE-IN PICTURE SHOW

WHENEVER I FIND MYSELF
DRIVING DOWN SOME LONESOME ROAD
THEN I SEE AN OLD DRIVE-IN, I GOT TO DRIVE BY SLOW
I QUICKLY TRY TO TAKE IN ALL THE MEMORIES IT HOLDS
OF ALL THOSE LONG LOST NIGHTS
AT THE THE DRIVE-IN PICTURE SHOW

(To Chorus)
