[Verse 1] We don't need your money, no, to get by Don't need the high life Wake up, get dressed, what the weather says Look at me, I'm so blessed You know I got things to do But can you wait a day or two? We don't need your money, no, to get by Don't need the high life [Pre-Chorus] Said I'm way too young to know my mind And I ain't seen nothing yet But I just wanna enjoy my time Let's forget about the rest [Chorus] Let me be, yeah Won't you let me be seventeen? Let me be, yeah Won't you let me be seventeen? [Verse 2] We got our own way of doing things, queens and kings Sunrise, midnight, my battery died But I got no need to check the time 'Cause I got no place to be No, nobody is waiting on, waiting on me We got our own way of doing things, queens and kings [Pre-Chorus] Said I'm way too young to know my mind (They say I'm way too young) And I ain't seen nothing yet (Ain't seen nothing yet) But I just wanna enjoy my time (Enjoy my time) Let's forget about the rest (Forget about the rest) [Chorus] Let me be, yeah Won't you let me be seventeen? Let me be, yeah Won't you let me be seventeen? [Bridge] Sometimes I wonder where the time goes Sometimes I wonder, yeah, yeah, I wonder Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever know Sometimes I wonder, yeah, yeah, I wonder [Chorus] If you let me be Won't you let me be seventeen? Let me be, let me be Let me be seventeen Won't you let me be, let me be Let me be seventeen? [Outro] Oh, you gotta let me be, let me be Let me be seventeen
