'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 levy
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
Every time I hear that song I go back I go back

I used to rock all night long 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 every time 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
Every time 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
Every time I hear that song I go back I go back

To the feel 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 too fast and I do recall I go back
(I go back)

To the loss of a real good friend
And the sixteen summers I shared with him I go back

I go back I go back
