I Was Jack (You Were Diane) Lyrics By Jake Owen

    it was yesterday
    it was years ago
    we were singing every word on the radio
    kinda like them songs could save our souls
    somehow someway
    we was falling fast
    we was jumping in
    blue jean halo hanging off the limb
    two american kids just like them
    every time they played
    and it blew us away

    do you turn it up
    do you sing along
    every time you hear that song
    like we did then
    like we did when
    do you close your eyes
    does it make you laugh
    do the memories take you back
    to six packs and a chevy cheyenne
    way back
    when i was jack and you were diane
    yeah and the music played

    yeah we were never growing up and growing old
    breaking up or letting go
    girl’s just like rocknroll
    where has it gone
    but i hope like hell every now and again
    i blow across your mind like that summer wind
    and you’re holding on to 6 as long as you can
    every time that it comes on

    do you turn it up
    do you sing along
    every time you hear that song
    like we did then
    like we did when
    do you close your eyes
    does it make you laugh
    do the memories take you back
    to six packs and a chevy cheyenne
    way back
    when i was jack and you were diane

    oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

    do you turn it up
    do you sing along
    every time you hear that song
    does it still move you
    baby hallelujah hallelujah
    do you close your eyes
    does it make you laugh
    do the memories take you back
    to six packs and a chevy cheyenne
    way back
    when i was jack and you were diane

    yeah way back
    way on back
    when i was jack and you were diane
    yeah do you close your eyes
    does it make you laugh
    when i was jack and you were diane
    yeah let the memories take you back
    take you back
    take you back
