The first two guesses are each correct(ish - in idea if not in form) for different halves of the title.
The song was used in a (bad) movie of the same title.

The Astro zombies (Movie)
Astro Zombies- Misfits ( song) ?

No zombies in the answer.
A zombie apocalypse without zombies?!
The zombies are elsewhere. We care about the survivor of the zombie apocalypse - no zombies because he killed them all? Or, he secreted himself in a safehouse? Or, he’s really good at running? 
Sorry, had to do it…

This person has already survived in my imagined scenario to create the paraphrase.
It was 47 years between when the song was released and when the film of the same name came out.
This song first appeared on one of the top-50 all-time best-selling albums.

Two (possibly thirsty) companions, en route.
Actually, this might be more accurate:
Route taken by two (posssibly thirsty) companions.
