Seventeen Lyrics

Five foot seven with light green eyes

Body built like a woman over twenty-five

Plus she push the whip that the average women couldn't get

Less she worked about two nine to five's

Girly played the game just a little too mature

She damn near had everything I was looking for

But things seemed shady

When I asked my lady to meet at the club

She had trouble at the door

That's when I found out that

(Ohh)

She was only seventeen years old

And I couldn't see her no more

(Ohh)

[Chorus:]

I ain't tryin to see myself locked up

For knockin up some young joan

(Ohh)

How could I explain this situation to my family

And all of my boys

(Ohh)

I'm sorry shorty

But you've got to get gone

Yeah

[Verse 2]

I tried to cut her off

But she wasn't having it

She kept telling me her age didn't mean sh--

And that's when she started to cry

Baby I need you in my life

And without you I just couldn't handle it

So what's a brother to do

(Ohh)

Either way I lose

(So)

I could just say my piece Musiq Soulchild - Seventeen - http://motolyrics.com/musiq-soulchild/seventeen-lyrics.html

Or piss off her peace

And talk it out with the boys in blue

Cause when it comes down to it

(Ohh)

She was just seventeen years old

And I was dead wrong from the door

(Ohh)
