Chesney Kenny - I Go Back lyrics

"Jack and Diane" painted a picture of my life and my dreams,

Suddenly this crazy world made more sense to me

Well I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along

Cause everytime I hear that song...

I go back to a two toned short bed Chevy

Drivin my first love out to the levvy

Livin life with no sense of time

And I go back to the feel of a fifty yard line

A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine

Wishin time would stop right in its tracks

Everytime I hear that song, I go back

I used to rock all night long to "Keep On Rockin Me Baby"

Frat parties, college bars, just tryin to impress the ladies

I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along

Cause everytime I hear that song....

I go back to the smell of an old gym floor

The taste of salt on the Carolina shore

After graduation and drinkin goodbye to friends

And I go back to watchin summer fade to fall

Growin up too fast and I do recall

Wishin time would stop right in its tracks

Everytime I hear that song, I go back, I go back

We all have a song that somehow stamped our lives

Takes us to another place and time

So I go back to a pew,preacher, and a choir

Singin bout God, brimstone, and fire

And the smell of Sunday chicken after church

And I go back to the loss of a real good friend

And the sixteen summers I shared with him

Now "Only The Good Die Young" stops me in my tracks

Everytime I hear that song,

I go back....

To the feel of a fifty yard line

A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine

I go back....

To watchin summer fade to fall

Growin up too fast and I do recall...

I go back....

To the loss of a real good friend

And the sixteen summers I shared with him...

I go back... I go back... I go back
