Drive In from Roadhouse by The Double Happiness

It’s Melbourne in ‘55
You had to learn to drive
To get into a drive in

Clip the speakers on the door
Order Cherry Ripes for four
The family’s at the Drive In
Out of town Drive In
Out of Town Drive In
Out of town Drive in
We were drivin’
To the Drive In
Out of Town

Now we’re at the Yatala Twin
Just smuggled three friends in
But no one ever knew
Only me and you
Out on our first date
In 1988
But all we see are houses
Another new estate

Drive in Out of town
Drive in Out of town
Drive in Out of town
Drive In
We would pile in
To the Drive in out of town

Now we wonder where they are
And we blame the VCR
for what happened to the drive in

Cos all but two are gone
But the memories linger on
Of what happened at the drive in

Out of town Drive in
Out of town Drive in
Out of town
Drivin’
Drive In
Out of town
