Jack And Diane

Little ditty, about Jack and Diane
Two American kids growin up in the heartland.
Jacky goin' be a football star
Diane's debutante, backseat of Jacky's car

Suckin' on a chili dog outside the Tastey Freeze
Diane sittin' on Jacky's lap, got his hands between her nees
Jacky say, Hey Diane, let's run off 'hind shady trees
Dribble off those Bobby Brooks, let me do what I please

Jacky says,
oh yeah life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Say, oh
yeah life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
They walk on

Jacky sits back, collects his thoughts for the moment
Scratches his head and does his best James Dean.
Well then there Diane, we oughtta run off to the city
Diane says, Baby, you ain't missin' nothing

Jacky say oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Oh yeah, they say life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
He walks on

Gonna let it rock, let it roll
Let the bible belt, come and save my soul
Hold on to 16 as long as you can
Changes come around real soon, make us women and men

Oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Oh yeah, they say life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

Little ditty, about Jack and Diane
Two American kids doin' best they can
