I spent all my childhood years
Wishin' that I looked like a movie star
A cigarette behind my ear
Leanin' up against a muscle car
Wanna know all the things that I shouldn't know
I got smokes that I stole from the Seven-L
Everybody's at the drive-in, I wanna go
I wanna be the guy who doesn't like to fight
But who could kick your ass if you touch his girl
I wanna be the guy who breaks all the rules
But the cops let him off 'cause they think he's cool
Wanna know all the things that I shouldn't know
I got smokes that I stole from the Seven-L
Everybody's at the drive-in, I wanna go
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Ahh
Grew up fast in that Nebraska town
Nothin' goin on and even less to do
Mom's at work and dad's never around
So me and the guys are skippin' school
Wanna know all the things that we shouldn't know
We got smokes that we stole from the Seven-L
Everybody's at the drive-in, I wanna go
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Ahh
I wanna be Brando in "The Wild One"
I wanna be somethin' to someone
'Cause nothin' ever changes in this town
The same old crew hangin' around
Just waitin for some shit to go down
But we love our drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Ahh
Now I'm grown, kids of my own
I never thought I could be a dad
Me and my girl, we're goin' strong
Still the best friend that I ever had
Now I know all the things that I didn't know
I got smokes, but I buy em' now, I guess I'm old
Drive-in's just an empty lot that no one mows
I miss those drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
Drive-in movies
I spent all my childhood years
Wishin' that I looked like a movie star
