Barely 17

Barely seventeen, Couple kids with a couple holes in our jeans, Spending cash like we had it, Going out more than we should, Man, we had it good. It was only last night, When your lips fell right into mine, I finally knew what they were talking about, In paperbacks, In movie scenes,The guy gets the girl, When you got me, And boy, you got me. Dancing in the headlights, Staying out past midnight, In your daddy’s Chevrolet. I’m throwing on your snapback, Popping in an 8-track, Singing to a little Conway. Maybe I’m just young, Maybe a little naive, For thinking, I found the one, At barely 17. When you’re 17, No one takes you seriously, Saying you don’t know about, What it means To be in love. They clearly haven’t met us. Chorus They say we could use just a little more time, But they ain't the ones looking in your eyes. Alt. Chorus: Dancing in the headlights, Staying out past midnight, In your daddy’s Chevrolet. I’m throwing on your snapback, Popping in an 8-track, Singing to a little Conway. Maybe I’m just young, Maybe a little naive, But I know my rights and wrongs, So don’t go lecturing me. Cause I know I found the one, Yeah I know I found the one, At Barely 17.
