I may have trying to be John Couger Mellancamp on this one , why I don't know but everyone seems to go through their JCM phase. Struggling Jack and Dianne , pinball and kids running wild.

lyrics

Jenny Broke Down

Jenny broke down in the barroom
She was crying all night
Bobby won big on the foosball
He was there in the light

She said,"Oh, I don't know if I can take it anymore."

She said,"Oh, I don't know if I can take it anymore."

Jenny fell down on the hard floor
Screaming his name
Bobby sat glued to the pinball
He had just won five games

She said,"Oh, I don't know if I can take it anymore."

She said,"Oh, I don't know if I can take it anymore."

And they all gathered 'round
Just to hear that primal sound
Ya , they all need to see
Someone winning at something

Bobby got into a bar fight
With a cop in plain clothes
Kitty was born in the lot weeds
Sunburn tatoo on her toes

Kitty grew strong like a cactus
in a small desert town
Kitty found out about freedom
on a discount greyhound

"Oh, I don't know if I can take it anymore."

She said,"Oh, I don't know if I can take it anymore."

and they all gathered round
just to hear that primal sound
Ya, they all all need to see
someone winning at something

(spoken part)

She said,"Oh, I don't know if I can take it anymore."
