Little ditty about Jack and Diane = Story about Jack and Diane Two American kids growin up in the heartland = Self explanatory Jackies gonna be a football star = Dreams of being a football player Diane debutante backseat of Jackies car = She becomes a woman in the backseat of his car Suckin on chilli dogs outside the tastee freeze = Kids just chillin' Diane sittin on Jackies lap = Self explanatory Hes got his hands between her knees = Messin' around Jackie say, "Hey Diane lets run off Behind a shady tree = Lets goe somewhere more private and finish fooling around Dribble off those Bobby Brooks = Take those cloths off (Bobby Brooks popular in 70's and 80's) Let me do what I please" = Let me go all the way And Jackie say a CHORUS: Oh yeah life goes on = Self explanatory Long after the thrill of livin is gone = She gets pregnant and they have a quick shock to adulthood Oh yeah life goes on = Self explanatory Long after the thrill of livin is gone They walk on = Even though they screwed up "they walk on" Jackie sits back reflects his thoughts for a moment = Thinking about his life Scratches his head and does his best James Dean = (Actor: Rebel Without a Cause) Trying to look tough and grown up Well you know Diane we oughtta run of the city = Grow up and get jobs take on responsibility Diane says, "Baby you aint miss no-thing" = She calms him in stating that life goes on no hurry Jackie say a CHORUS: Oh yeah life goes on Long after the thrill of livin is gone Oh yeah life goes on Long after the thrill of livin is gone Gonna let it rock Let it roll = Lets see where life takes us Let the bible belt come down And save my soul = They know what they did was wrong Hold on to 16 as lang as you can Changes comin round real soon Make us women and men = Stay kids without kids; life already comes at you fast enough Little ditty about Jack and Diane = Finishing up the story Two American kids doin the best they can = Had a kid and mow have to deal with it |
