Jack and Diane Lyrics
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
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
Let me do what I please"
And Jacky say
Oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Oh yeah say life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
They walk on
Jacky 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 missin' nothing"
Jacky says
Oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Oh yeah say 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 sixteen as long as you can
Changes come around real soon
Make us women and men
Oh yeah, life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Oh yeah say life goes on
Long after the thrill of livin' is gone
Little ditty about Jack and Diane
Two American kids doing the best they can
