Little ditty about Jack and Diane
|
Two American kids growin' up in the heartland
|
Jackie gonna be a football star
|
Diane debutante backseat of Jackie's car
|
|
Suckin' on chili dogs outside the tastee freeze
|
Diane's sittin' on Jackie's lap
|
He's got his hand between her knees
|
Jackie say, "Hey Diane let's run off
|
Behind a shady tree
|
Dribble off those Bobby Brooks
|
Let me do what I please."
|
And Jackie say
|
|
Oh yeah life goes on
|
Long after the thrill of livin is gone
|
Oh yeay say life goes on
|
Long after the thrill of livin is gone, they walk on
|
|
Jackie sits back reflects his thoughts for the moment
|
Scratches his head and does his best James Dean.
|
Well you know Diane, we oughta run off to the city
|
Diane says "Baby, you ain't missin' nuth-in"
|
Jackie say-a
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Gonna let it rock
|
Let it roll
|
Let the Bible Belt come and
|
Save my soul
|
Hold on to sixteen as long as you can
|
Changes come around real soon
|
Make us women and men
|
