Dressed down, you picked me up, at 7pm I was waiting out front
Sitting on my father´s garden wall.
It´s the last night of senior year, my head is so full of excitement and fear We don´t know what the future holds

I don´t care, cause this is ours to take
And I hope I get the guts to say

Darling oo oo oo oo don´t drive me home
Cause tonight we´ll find a place of our own
Cause my knee´s a stick shift 1,2,3, Who needs sleep when city lights are free? Oo oo oo oo don´t drive me home

The Prom King is on the stage, his little bitty queen will be crying for days
It´s time to start the final dance.
When the music stops we´ll get outta town, I´ll kick my heels off and we´ll drive around We´ll watch the stars and lie down.

We don´t care, cause tonight our lives begin
These words are balancing on my lips

Darling oo oo oo oo don´t drive me home
Cause tonight we´ll find a place of our own
Cause my knee´s a stick shift 1,2,3, Who needs sleep when city lights are free? Oo oo oo oo don´t drive me home
