Jack & Diane Lyrics

Artist: John Mellencamp

Title: Jack & Diane

Little ditty about Jack and Diane

2 American kids growin up in the heartland

Jackie gonna be a football star

Diane debutante backseat of Jacky's car

Suckin' on chili dog outside the Tastee Freeze

Diane's sittin' on Jacky's lap

He's got his hand between her knees

Jacky say "Hey Diane lets run off

Behind a shady tree"

Dribble off those Bobby Brooks

Let me do what I please.

And Say a

Oh yeah life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

Oh yeah life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone, they walk on

Jacky sits back reflects his thoughts for the moment

Scratches his head and does his best James Dean.

Well you know Diane, we gotta run of the city

Diane says "Baby, you aint missin' nothing"

Jacky say a

Oh yeah life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

Oh yeah life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

Gonna let it rock

Let it roll

Let the Bible Belt come down

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

A little ditty about Jack and Diane

Two American kids doing the best they can
