Story Behind the Song
Part of this song borrows from the beautiful Sinatra song "It Was a Very Good Year."
Lyrics
Is this a story or a lie?
(i gave you a man's touch)
I know you'll never forget me
(the way the river runs)
Two sillhouettes saying goodnight
(i'm known to them, to girls)
With a whole lot of spending money
(put your gloves on, let's sink the world)
I'm only seventeen, seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen years old
When I was seventeen
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls
When I was seventeen
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for city girls
When I was seventeen
I'm only seventeen
I want to be someone
And I've been known to the girls
Put your gloves on:
We're going to sink the world
I'm only seventeen
Will you hear or think in your fits?
A breast, you break
Your passions - they're hanging out
I slashed you open
and they're hanging out
I can say I'm not naive
I wanted you to get down with me
(she loves me, she loves me not)
(she loves me, she loves me not)
(she loves me, she loves me not)
(she loves me, she loves me not)
(she loves me not, she loves me not)
(she loves me not, she loves me not)
etc.
