Lyrics
I’m seventeen,
don’t you know I own this fucking town
I hide to smoke, I lie to drink
I’m the coolest kid around
Oh, yeah, I’m king of the hill
And the guys all want my crown
Oh yeah I’m cream of the crop
and I make all the girls melt down
I ain’t young anymore
Barely sixteen
She’s the hottest girl, straight from my dreams
Rich and smart, she stole my heart,
she’s meant to be my queen
Oh but we’ve gotta hide,
She says we’re better off not being seen
Oh but we’ve gotta hide
What a drag I think she’s ashamed of me
I ain’t young anymore
I’m seventeen,
everybody knows me in this town
Brought Jack’s gun to school today
to show my friends and fool around
Oh no, what I did do
I shot my teacher down
Oh no what did I do
I shot my girlfriend down
I’m not young anymore
I’m 52,
my eyes are getting old but I still see
That fucking town,
through double ribbed bars of hardened steel
Oh your honor, I had no choice
I caught them messing around
Oh, no, I had no choice,
I was the king of that goddamn town
I ain’t young anymore
