Babys: "Sweet 17" Lyrics

Sixteen going on seventeen

But she thinks that shes twenty-one

Doing things she aint done before

Got her hands on a loaded gun

Talking bout

Sweet seventeen

Got a mouthful of sticky stuff

Blowing bubbles in the parking lot

Shes in love with a film star

So she gives it everything shes got

Her daddy tells her shes crazy

And her momma says

Please slow down

See her out on the dance floor

Shes gonna wind up in the lost and found

Im talking about

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

Sweet seventeen

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

Sweet seventeen

I wouldnt say shes easy

But shes the kinda girl that wont say no

Shes always getting into trouble

Though shes only got a year to go

Shes got a record with the local sherriff

And a reputation coast to coast

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

Sweet seventeen

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

Sweet seventeen

Sixteen going on seventeen

And she acts like shes twenty-one

Counting days til shes eighteen

Shes rated expert

Shes having fun

Im talking bout

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

Sweet seventeen

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

Sweet seventeen

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

You know what I mean

(fifteen sixteen seventeen)

Sweet seventeen
