[Verse] Her eyes are as black as a California Highway Patrol car And they shine like a bottle of Jim Beam bourbon The teeth in her mouth are white like a silk slip On a topless vampire woman [Verse 2] Well they found her body up in the Hollywood Hills And I was the last person to see her alive Her eyes were as black as a California Highway Patrol car And she said "Babe Are you ready to die?" [Chorus] It's a long way back to Louisville And I might not ever make it home But if you want to see her There's a midnight showing At the drive-in theater down the road [Verse 3] Her hair is as black as a Black Cadillac and it's softer Than the bluegrass back in Kentucky The night we met She had her arms crossed Like she didn't want to know me [Verse 4] And when I walked up She said "Hello Darlin'" In an accent I'd never heard before And we talked and laughed like old friends do And she took me to her room [Chorus] It's a long way back to Louisville And I might not ever make it home But if you want to see her There's a midnight showing At the drive-in theater down the road
