I've got a friend who wears go-go boots to Sunday School    We used to sit and drink pink champagne on a tin roof    Ridin' it out in a Thunderbird    Singin' out loud every single word of Jack & Diane    Tryin' to pretend there was no rules    Kissin' on boys and sneakin' in bars    Tryin' to get a glimpse of who we are    We weren't wild, but we weren't far       She said Thelma and Louise, you got nothin' on me    And you can tell ol' James Dean to get in line    Thanks to Elvis and Kurt Cobain, the world will never be the same    You gotta make history one day at a time       She graduated in 1987    We were gonna make a break for it together    Headed out to Hollywood    Where the stars are bright and the weather's good    But she changed her mind and went back to the 7-11    She went and married the football star    Had few kids and works real hard    It ain't wild but it ain't far       (Repeat Chorus)       Hey, Thelma and Louise, you got nothin' on me    And you can tell ol' James Dean to get in line    Thanks to Jesus and John Wayne the world will never be the same    You've gotta make history one day at a time       Like John Lennon and Kennedy    I'm with them, yeah, 'cause I believe    You gotta make history one day at a time
