Album: American Fool
Artist: John Mellencamp
 

Little ditty about jack and diane
Two american kids growin´ up in the heartland
Jackie´s gonna be a football star
Diane debutante backseat of jackie´s car

Suckin´ on chilli dogs outside the tastee freeze
Diane sittin´ on jackie´s lap
He´s got his hands between her knees
Jackie say, "hey diane let´s run off
Behind a shady tree
Dribble off those bobby brooks
Let me do what i please"
And 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 they walk on

Jackie sits back reflects his thoughts for a moment
Scratches his head and does his best james dean
Well you know diane we oughtta run of the city
Diane says, "baby you ain´t miss no-thing"
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
Let the bible belt come down
And save my soul
Hold on to 16 as lang as you can
Changes comin´ round real soon
Make us women and men

Little ditty about jack and diane
Two american kids doin´ the best they can
