Seventeen

Back seat of her daddy's car I was trying not to go too far. Kept thinkin' 'bout the words the preacher man said. Lightning flashed across the sky, I saw love in a young girl's eyes, And that's a look you never forget. Seventeen, Only comes once in a lifetime. Don't it just fly by wild and free Goin' anyway the wind blew, baby! Seventeen, Livin' on crazy dreams, Rock-n-roll, and faded blue jeans, And standin' on the edge of everything. Seventeen! Legs hangin' off a bayou bridge, Feedin' fish potato chips, And talkin' 'bout the mysteries of the universe. Yeah, the world was somewhere else, We had the summer all to ourselves, And the stars went off like fireworks. Seventeen, Only comes once in a lifetime. Don't it just fly by wild and free Goin' anyway the wind blew, baby! Seventeen, Livin' on crazy dreams, Rock-n-roll, and faded blue jeans, And standin' on the edge of everything. Seventeen! Seventeen, Only comes once in a lifetime. Well, don't it just fly by wild and free Going anyway the wind blew, baby! Seventeen, Livin' on crazy dreams, Rock-n-roll, and faded blue jeans, And standin' on the edge of everything. Seventeen! Yeah, Seventeen! Sweet seventeen!
