Kissin' in the Back Row of the Movies
Drifters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can't go out with me
But when the weekend comes around
She knows where we will be
Kissin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Holdin' hands together, you and I
Smoochin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
We could stay forever, you and I
We could stay forever, you and I
Huggin' and a kissin' in the back row of the movies
Every night, I pick you up from school
Cause you're my steady date
But Monday to the Friday night
I leave you at the gate, yeah
You know, we can't have too much fun
'Til all your homework's done
But when the weekend comes
She knows where we will be, oh
Kissin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Holdin' hands together, you and I
Holdin' hands together, baby
Smoochin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
We could stay forever, you and I
We could stay forever, you and I
Huggin' and a kissin' in the back row of the movies
Oh, I sit at home at night and watch TV
I still think of you
But Monday to the Friday night
We share a joke of two, yeah
You know, they don't knock on my door
At the Friday night for sure
But when the weekend comes
She knows where we will be, yeah
Kissin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Holdin' hands together, you and I
Holdin' hands together, baby
Smoochin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you, yeah
We could stay forever, you and I
We could stay forever, you and I
Huggin' and a kissin' in the back row of the movies, yeah
Kissin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Holdin' hands together, you and I
Holdin' hands together, baby
Smoochin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Where we could stay forever, you and I
The song "Kissin' in the Back Row of the Movies" by The Drifters is a nostalgic look back at teenage romance. The song is about a couple who is not allowed to date during the week because of strict parents, but they are free to be together on the weekends. They spend their Saturday nights in the back row of the movies, holding hands and smooching, hoping to make their love last forever.
The song captures the excitement and innocence of young love, with its upbeat tempo and catchy chorus. It also highlights the tension of trying to balance the demands of school and parents with the desire to be with someone special. The back row of the movies becomes a symbol of freedom and rebellion, a place where they can escape from the pressures of growing up and just be together.

De que época que os Drifters São...????
Os caras são muito bons !!!!
Mas nós sabemos muito bem que o regime de segregação racial nos Estados Unidos é muito grande....
Nos sabemos também que existia uma gravadora específica par a gravar as músicas dos negros. ( A Montawn)....
Pois as demais gravadoras não queriam Graça E as músicas dos negros....
Hoje em dia eu vejo várias bandas formadas por play-boizinhos norte americanos que fazem parte do passado..
Mas as músicas.dos Drifters são super atuais....
Esses caras mereciam fazer uma.turnê mundial, pirque os caras são muito bons....
Talvez eles não tenham mais idade par a fazer turnê mundial ....
Mas eles merecem ser reverenciados, porque as músicas deles são uma verdadeira obra prima..
Valeu. ...
