It was yesterday, it was years ago

We were singin′ every word on the radio

Kinda like them songs could save our soulsSomehow, 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
