No capo
[Intro]
D G A7 D G A7
D-D-Drive in movie, D-D-Drive in movie
[Verse]
D G
Took my baby to a drive in movie
D A7
Thinking I'm a lover man
D G
But as soon as we parked she jumped out in the dark
D A7 D
And headed for the candy stand
D G
Oh ten minutes later she was knocking on my door
D A7
Telling me to let her in
D G
But when I opened the door I almost hit the floor
D A7 D
Cause here's what she brought in
[Chorus]
G
She had a bag of popcorn with butter running through
D
A candy bar, an ice cream cone, a popsicle too
G
Tootsie roll and a licorice stick
A7 A7 G A7
The whole gooeyness about it made me sick
[Verse]
D
Then the boys in the box said:
G D A7
"Refreshment time, get yourself something to eat"
D G
But when I looked around, lord there I found
D A7 D
My girl getting to her feet
D G
I did a double take, thought my heart would break
D A7
When I remember that old line
D G
"If you can't beat 'em brother, you better join 'em"
D A7 D
So now were doing fine
[Chorus]
G
Oh with a bag of popcorn with butter running through
D
A candy bar, an ice cream cone, a popsicle too
G
Tootsie roll and a licorice stick
A7 A7 G A7
Oh now we get together and we make ourselves sick
[Outro]
D G A7 D G A7
D-D-Drive in movie, D-D-Drive in movie
D G A7 D G A7
D-D-Drive in movie, D-D-Drive in movie
D G A7 D G A7
D-D-Drive in movie, D-D-Drive in movie...
