    Apparently John Mellencamp doesn't sing clearly enough---he seems to be one of the most misunderstood in this thread.
    He sings it high, he plays it low

    It's not chili dog? Seriously?

    Learn something new every day! I've thought it was that since I first heard the song!

    Yes! I thought a cherry bomb was an explosive - why would they be sucking on that? We are talking about "Jack and Diane" right? "Suckin' on a chili dog outside the Tastee Freeze" made sense to me. I though they were just enjoying some fast food together.

    You were right, Soda, in Jack and Diane, it is 'sucking on a chili dog'. He also had a song called Cherry Bomb:

    That's when a sport was a sport
    And groovin' was groovin'
    And dancin' meant everything
    We were young and we were improvin'
    Laughin', laughin' with our friends
    Holdin' hands meant somethin', baby
    Outside the club"Cherry Bomb"
    Our hearts were really thumpin'
    Say yeah yeah yeah
    Say yeah yeah yeah

    An honest mistake to make! Cherry Bomb wasn't as popular as Jack and Diane, and even I, who owns Cherry Bomb on a CD, remembered it was the name of the song.
