The music wasn't all that bad, but his lyrics were shite.

The great Mick Ronson made that song a hit for him.
Mellencamp was in a wad, and showed all to Ronson (who had a lot of work stateside, after having launched Lou Reed), who put in the handclaps, let it rock and roll BS.
He obviously didn't spend time on the lyrics (couldn't anyway, what does a Hull boy know about chili dogs).
Odd bedmates, Mellencamp (then Cougar) must have been a basket case on his last leg, with the label that had both Reed and him.
