Cross Canadian Ragweed - 17 Lyrics

Cross Canadian Ragweed
Miscellaneous
17
sirens wail and a flashing light
nothin better to do on a tuesday night
but give me hell
where u headed what are u out for
dont see much of u round here any more
i guess its just as well
once apon a time u had it all
u let everybody down
ur always 17 in ur hometown

(chorous)
runnin from your folks runnin from the law, runnin from love runnin from ur fear runnin from it all
u keep on runnin boy u run urself in the ground ur always 17 in ur hometown

the porch swing still looks the same
she prolly wont even remember my name
just like she didnt back then
is she married is she doin fine
does she know about all the nights i lay awake crying just to know her hand
the door opens and i run away just like the same old clown
ur always 17 in ur hometown

(chorous)

nobodys gonna miss me no tears will fall
no ones gonna wave when i hit that road
my boots are broken my brain is sore
from keppin up with their little world
i got a heavy load
im gonna leave em all just like before
i'll be city bound
ur always 17 in ur hometown

(chorous)
