| Backseat of her daddy’s car
|
| I was trying not to go too far
|
| Kept thinking about the words the preacherman said
|
| Lightnin' 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 any way the wind blew, baby
|
| Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams
|
| Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
|
| And standing on the edge of everything
|
| Seventeen
|
| Legs hangin' off the Bayou Bridge
|
| Feedin' fish potato chips
|
| And talkin' about 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 any way the wind blew, baby
|
| Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams
|
| Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
|
| And standing on the edge of everything
|
| Seventeen
|
| Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
|
| Don’t it just fly by wild and free
|
| Goin any way the wind blew, baby
|
| Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams
|
| Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
|
| And standing on the edge of everything
|
