Seventeen

We were young

Way too young

For what we did

Oh, we lived it up

Smoking in your rundown Chevrolet

Yo mama didn’t approve of me

'Cause I would make a fool of me

Oh, but we lived

And you stood by me

Your tears put out the fires I would start

I felt needles in my heart

When you, you, you

But when you remember us

Remember us at seventeen

When you remember us

Remember us at seventeen

We were close

Way too close

For what you did

Oh, we lived it up

But I couldn’t keep livin’ a lie

No matter what you meant to me

If I knew you were foolin’ me

And that you were using me

Probably wouldn't of let you

Let you stand by me

Gave you my friendship from the start

You still put needles in my heart

When you, you, you

But when you remember us

Remember us at seventeen

When you remember us

Remember us at seventeen

Hey

Aye, aye, hey

Ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
