17 |
Sirens wail and a flashin' light |
Nothin' better to do on a Tuesday night |
But give me hell |
«Where you headed, what are you out for?» |
We don’t see much of you 'round here anymore |
I guess it’s just as well |
Once upon a time you had it all |
You let everybody down |
You’re always 17 in your hometown |
CHORUS |
Runnin' from your folks |
Runnin' from the law |
Runnin' from love |
Runnin' from your fears |
Runnin' from it all |
You keep on runnin' boy, |
You’ll run yourself in the ground |
You’re always 17 in your hometown |
Her porch swing still looks the same |
She probably won’t even remember my name |
Just like she didn’t back then |
Is she married? |
Is she doin' fine? |
Does she know about all the nights |
I laid awake cryin' just to know her hand? |
The door opens and I run away |
Just like the same old clown |
You’re always 17 in your hometown |
CHORUS |
Nobody is gonna miss me |
No tears will fall, No one’s gonna weep |
When I hit that road |
My boots are broken, my brain is sore |
From keepin' up with their little world |
I got a heavy load |
Gonna leave 'em all just like before |
I’m big city bound |
You’re always 17 in your hometown |
CHORUS |
You’re always 17 |
Yeah you’re always 17 |
You’re always 17 in your hometown |
