John Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. Hiatt's songs were covered successfully by everyone from Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, and Dr. Feelgood to Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and the Neville Brothers, yet it took him 13 years to reach the charts himself. Of course, it nearly took him that long to find his own style. Hiatt began his solo career in 1974, and over the next decade he ran through a number of different styles from rock & roll to new wave pop before he finally settled on a rootsy fusion of rock & roll, country, blues, and folk with his 1987 album Bring the Family.

Graduated Lyrics
John Hiatt
I used to stumble up to your door
Three thousand kisses on the living room floor
But we dont do that kind of thing anymore
Cause we both graduated
We used to talk until the morning light
Bout everything we did and did not like
Now its all double blinds and downsized appetites
Cause we both graduated
Yeah we both graduated
And we learned, we learned, we learned to be strong
Now the powers gone
And we turned, we turned, turned out to be wrong
Now we both graduated
Now we both graduated
Now we both graduated
I liked feeling in the dark for you
We watched apocalypse now and the heart of darkness, too
Melted down barriers and cleaned up the goo
Now we both graduated
No amount of college is gonna give you that jolt
The top of the pyramid is holding all our volts
Its not high technology, its just nuts and bolts
And we both graduated
Yeah we both graduated
And we learned, we learned, we learned to be strong
Now the powers gone
And we turned, we turned, turned out to be wrong
And we both graduated
Yeah we both graduated
Na na, na nanana, nana nanana na
Na na, na nanana, nana nanana na
Na na, na nanana, nana nanana na
Now as we step out in this frozen world
The amazing mr snowjob and his cryogenic girl
Living out history but dead to the world
Cause we both graduated
Yeah we both graduated
Na na, na nanana, nana nanana na...
