Song lyrics
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 every time I hear that song.

I go back to a two toned short bed Chevy
Driving my first love out to the levvy
Livin' life with no sense of time
I go back to the feel of a fifty yard line
A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine
Wishin' time would stop right in it's tracks
Every time I hear that song, I go back
I go back.

Well, I used to rock all night long
To Keep On Rocking Me, Baby
At frat parties, college bars, just trying to impress the ladies
Well, I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along
'Cause everytime 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' goodbye to friends
I go back to watchin' summer fade to fall
Growin' up too fast and I do recall
Wishing time would stop right in it's tracks
Everytime I hear that song, I go back
I go back.

We all have a song that's 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 and 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
Everytime I hear that song, I go back
I go back.

To the feel of a fifty yard line
A blanket, a girls, and some raspberry wine
I go back
To watching summer fade to fall
Growing up too fast and I do recall
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...

somehow stamped your life isnt a song--he is just saying that everybody has a song that affected their life in some wayl.

I think this is a great song. I live about 20 mins. from his hometown and if you have ever seen it you can totally relate. I have to give it props.

I don't think he was saying that was a title of a song but asking the question of what song has "somehow stamped your life"

The song that always takes me back these days is "19-Something" by Mark Wills. That just starts all sorts of memories going off in my head. But there are a few that take me back to just a special memory, but that list would take to long to post.

I like this song because it makes me go back and think about my friend Matthew who pased away in May 2004. Then when it says in the song
to the loss of a real good friend and the sixteen summers I shared with him makes me think of his sixteen year old brother, Brandon and sometimes I will change sixteen to thirteen since I'm 13.
WE LOVE YA MATT!

I am such a HUGE Kenny fan and this is a GREAT song...man he's a great performer too!

There are so many songs that take me back to the good ole days, especially my high school years...there's "Inside Out" by Eve 6 (which is sort of a bad song, lol, but we used to sing it all the time freshman year) there's Amazed, my "song" with my first boyfriend, there's "Something LIke That" by Tim Mc Graw, "THe Middle" Jimmy Eat World, "Young" by Kenny , "The Cowboy In Me" Tim McGraw...oh and so many more, and each has a story and a picture to go with it...

*reminisces*
