I Was Jack (You Were Diane)

It was yesterday, it was years ago
We were singin' every word on the radio
Kinda like them songs could save our souls
Somehow, someway
We was fallin' fast, we was jumpin' in
Blue jean halo hangin' off the wind
Two american kids just like them
Every time they play
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 growin' up or growin' old
Breakin' up or lettin' go
Girl, just like rock 'n' roll, 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 holdin' on to 16 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 ya, 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, do the memories take you back
Take you back, take you back
