I Go Back - Kenny Chesney (lyrics) \u0022Jack and Diane\u0022 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\u0027t help but sing along \u0027Cause every time I hear that song I go back to a two-toned, short-bed Chevy Drivin\u0027 my first love out to the levee Livin\u0027 life with no sense of time I go back to the feel of a 50-yard line A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine Wishin\u0027 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 \u0022Keep On Rockin\u0027 Me Baby\u0022 Frat parties, college bars, just tryin\u0027 to impress the ladies Well, I heard it today, and I couldn\u0027t help but sing along \u0027Cause every time I hear that song I go back to the smell of an old gym floor The taste of salt on a Carolina shore After graduation and drinkin\u0027 goodbye to friends I go back to watchin\u0027 summer fade to fall Growin\u0027 up too fast and I do recall Wishin\u0027 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\u0027 \u0027bout 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 16 summers I shared with him Now \u0022Only The Good Die Young\u0022 stops me in my tracks Every time I hear that song I go back I go back To the feel of a 50-yard line A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine I go back (I go back) To watchin\u0027 summer fade to fall Growin\u0027 up too fast and I do recall I go back (I go back) To the loss of a real good friend And the 16 summers I shared with him I go back I go back I go back
