Jack & Diane

[Verse 1]

Little ditty about Jack and Diane

Two American kids growin' up in the heartland

Jack, he's gonna be a football star

Diane's debutante backseat of Jacky's car

[Verse 2]

Suckin' on a chili dog outside the Tastee Freez

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 slacks, now do what I please"

Say a....

[Chorus]

Oh yeah, life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

I say, oh yeah say life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

Now walk on

[Verse 3]

Jacky sits back, collects his thoughts for the moment

Scratches his head and does his best James Dean

"Well then, there Diane, we ought to run off to the city"

Diane says, "Baby, you ain't missin' nothing"

But Jacky say a...

[Chorus]

Oh yeah, life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

Oh yeah I say life goes on

Long after the thrill of livin' is gone

[Bridge]

Gonna let it rock, let it roll

Let the Bible Belt come and save my soul

Holdin on to sixteen as long as you can

Changes come around real soon

Make us women and men

[Chorus]

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

[Outro]

A little ditty about Jack and Diane

Two American kids doing the best they can
