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 now do what i please
say a
oh yeah life goes on
long after the thrill of livin’ is gone
i say oh yeah say life goes on
long after the thrill of livin’ is gone
now walk on
jacky sits back collects his thoughts for the moment
scratches his head and does his best james dean
well then there diane we ought to run off to the city
diane says baby you ain’t missin’ nothing
but jacky say a
oh yeah life goes on
long after the thrill of livin’ is gone
oh yeah i say life goes on
long after the thrill of livin’ is gone
gonna let it rock let it roll
let the bible belt come and save my soul
holdin 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 they say life goes on
long after the thrill of livin’ is gone
