"Jack and Diane" painted a picture of my life and my dreams, Suddenly this
crazy world made more sense to me Well I heard it today and I couldn't help
but sing along Cause everytime I hear that song...
I go back to a two
toned short bed Chevy Drivin my first love out to the levvy Livin life
with no sense of time And I go back to the feel of a fifty yard line A
blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine Wishin time would stop right in its
tracks Everytime I hear that song, I go back
I used to rock all night
to "Keep On Rockin Me Baby" Frat parties, college bars, just tryin to
impress the ladies I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing
along Cause everytime I hear that song....
I go back to the smell of
an old gym floor The taste of salt on the Carolina shore After graduation
and drinkin goodbye to friends And I go back to watchin summer fade to
fall Growin up too fast and I do recall Wishin time would stop right in
its tracks Everytime I hear that song, I go back, I go back
We all
have a song that somehow stamped our lives Takes us to another place and
time
So I go back to a pew,preacher, and a choir Singin bout God,
brimstone, and fire And the smell of Sunday chicken after church And I go
back to the loss of a real good friend And the sixteen summers I shared with
him Now "Only The Good Die Young" stops me in my tracks Everytime I hear
that song, I go back....
