17

[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
