Seventeen, seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
He was working at the record shop
I would kiss him in the parking lot
Tasting like cigarettes and soda pop
Seventeen
He would tell me I was beautiful
Sneaking in the neighbor's swimming pool
Yeah, he taught me how to break the rules
Seventeen
Hey, these 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
Seventeen
Stealing beers out of the trailer park
Flicking lighters just to fight the dark
My favorite place was sitting in his car
Seventeen
Lay a blanket on the roof top
That time I knew I wouldn't make him stop
The nights were cold, but we kept them hot
Seventeen
Hey, these 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
'Cause it was you and me
We were living the dream
And we were seventeen
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (seventeen)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (seventeen)
I remember what it felt like
Just a small town kind of life
If only I could just go back in time
Seventeen
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
'Cause it was you and me
We were living the dream
And we were seventeen
