Intro - -() - -()= 4x’s () Jack & Diane painted a picture of my life and my dreams () suddenly this crazy world made more sense to me () I heard it today and couldn’t help but sing along cause everytime I hear that song I go back to a two tone short bed Chevy Drivin my first love out to the levy Livin life with no sense of time And I go back to the field 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 go back () I use to rock all night long to keep on rockin my baby () Frat parties college bars just tryin to impress the ladies I heard it today and couldn’t help but sing along cause everytime I hear that song I go back to the smell of an old gym floor And the taste of salt on a Carolina shore After graduation and drinkin goodbye to friends And I go back to watchin summer fade to fall Growin up to fast and I do recall Wishin time would stop right in its tracks Everytime I hear that song - - I go back I go back (bridge) We all have a song that somehow stamped our lives - - Takes us to another place and time So I go back to the pew Preacher and a chior Singin about God bimestone 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 a sharin with him Now "Only the good die young" stops me in my tracks Everytime I hear that song - - I go back I go back To the field of a fifty yard line A blanket a girl some raspberry wine I go back (I go back) To watchin summer fade to fall Growin up to fast and I do recall I go back (I go back) To the loss of a real good friend And the sixteen summers a sharin with him I go back (I go back)
