He was working at the record shop I would kiss him in the parking lot Tasting like cigarettes and soda pop 17
He would tell me I was beautiful Sneaking in the neighbor’s swimming pool Yeah, he taught me how to break the rules 17
Hey, those days are long gone And when I hear this song it takes me back
We were on top of the world Back when I was your girl We were living so wild and free Acting stupid for fun All we needed was love That’s the way it’s supposed to be 17
Stealing beers out of the trailer park Flicking lighters just to fight the dark My favorite place was sitting in his car 17
We laid a blanket on the roof top That time I knew I wouldn’t make him stop The nights were cold but we kept ‘em hot 17
Hey, those days are long gone And when I hear this song it takes me back
We were on top of the world, Back when I was your girl We were living so wild and free Acting stupid for fun All we needed was love That’s the way it’s supposed to be
We were running red lights We were going all night Didn’t care about anything We were living our dream It was you and me And we were 17
Oh, oh, oh, oh….. 17 17
I remember what it felt like Just a small town kind of life If I could only just go back in time, 17
We were on top of the world Back when I was your girl We were living so wild and free Acting stupid for fun All we needed was love That’s the way it’s supposed to be
We were running red lights We were going all night Didn’t care about anything We were living our dream It was you and me And we were 17
