John Mellencamp - Jack & Diane lyrics

A little ditty 'bout Jack & Diane -

Two american kids growing up in the heart land.

Jack he's gonna be a football star

Diane debutante in the back seat ofJacky's car.

Suckin' on chilli dog outside the tastee freez

Diane sitting on Jacky's lap got his hands between her knees.

Jack he says "hey Diane

let's run off behind a shady tree

Dribble off those bobby brooks

let me do what I please" saying:

Oh yeah - life goes on

Long after the thrill of living is gone

sayin'

Oh yeah - life goes on

Long after the thrill of living is gone

now walk on.

Jack he sits back collects his thoughts for a moment

Scratches his head and does his best James Dean.

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

Diane says: "Baby

you ain't missing a thing"

but Tack

he says:

Oh yeah - life goes on

Long after the thrill of living is gone

Oh yeah

he says - life goes on

Long after the thrill of living is gone.

Oh let it rock let it roll

Let the bible belt come and save my soul.

Holdin' on to sixteen as long as you can

Change is coming round real soon make us woman and mer

Oh yeah - life goes on

. . .

A little ditty 'bout Jack and Diane -

Two american kids doin' the best they can.
