Cherry Bowl Drive-In

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm

Saw her at the Texaco just the other day

Even more beautiful, her hair had a touch of gray

We both stood and stared at each other, couldn't say a word

Then I said, "God, it's good to see you"

And she said, "Well, have you heard

They're tearin' down the Cherry Bowl Drive-In tomorrow

Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair

She's goin' the way all things must go someday

But I will still remember you there

Yes, I will

I will still remember you there"

Then I said, "Little Melissa

She's lookin' more and more like you

Saw her down on Maple Street

She's even got your same smile too

And my Jake Jr. says, "Daddy

Someday I'm gonna marry that girl"

Isn't that just perfect? Oh, such a crazy world

So they're tearin' down the Cherry Bowl Drive-In tomorrow

Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair

She's goin' the way all things must go someday

But I will still remember you there

Yes, I will, yes, I will

I will still remember you there

"Can you get away tomorrow?

If you can't, I understand

It's just that when the big screen falls

I wanna be holdin' your hand

Holdin' your hand

When they're tearin' down

The Cherry Bowl Drive-In tomorrow

Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair

She's goin' the way all things must go someday

But I will still remember you there

Yes, I will, yes, I will

I will still remember there"
