Jack N Diane - Lyrics by John Mellencamp


Lyrics
Little ditty about jack and diane
Two american kids growin
´ up in the heartland
Jackie
´s gonna be a football star
Diane debutante backseat of jackie
´s car
Suckin
´ on chilli dogs outside the tastee freeze
Diane sittin
´ on jackie
´s lap
He
´s got his hands 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 a
Chorus:
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
Jackie sits back reflects his thoughts for a moment
Scratches his head and does his best james dean
Well you know diane we oughtta run of the city
Diane says, baby you ain
´t miss no-thing
Jackie say a
Chorus:
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 lang as you can
Changes comin
´ round real soon
Make us women and men
Little ditty about jack and diane
Two american kids doin
´ the best they can
