Jack & Diane Song Lyrics
Jack & Diane by John Cougar A little ditty 'bout Jack and Diane
Two American kids growing up in the heartland
Jack he's gonna be a football star
Diane debutante back seat of Jacky's car
Suckin' on chilli dogs outside the tastee freeze
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 Jack 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 man
Oh yeah life goes on
Long after the thrill of living is gone
Oh yeah we're sayin' life goes on
Long after the thrill of living is gone
A little ditty 'bout Jack and Diane
Two American kids doin' the best they can
