Seventeen

[Verse 1]

The stone thrown at your window

It's telling you to get up and get up and go (Oh)

And to climb down the shakers of your house

To the back of my Chevy, no one will ever know (Oh, whoa)

[Chorus]

We drive around November with one light out

They try to pull us over, go right ahead

We'll still drive around to find a place to sleep at

And if we can't find one backseat's gonna be our bed

[Verse 2]

Oh Melanie

I don't believe when you're tellin' me that

You're seventeen and proud

'Cause you said it so loud

It's not right to hold you through the night

You put up no fight when I put words in your mouth

Ooh, yeah

[Chorus]

We drive around November with one light out

They try to pull us over, go right ahead

We'll still drive around to find a place to sleep at

And if we can't find one backseat's gonna be our bed

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

She ripped off the grass and threw it on my face

I pushed her over, laughing right away

She said, "The moonlight makes the windows in your eyes."

Kiss her inside out with no goodbye, bye

[Outro]

I remember waking up in the middle of the night

On the brick shear highway

It's not right, but oh, I can't fight it anymore

Do you remember waking up in the middle of the night

On the brick shear highway

Oh, it's not right, yeah

I can't fight it anymore

I can't fight

I can't fight it anymore

Oh, whoa
