    Story Behind the Song
    This was the first official recording by Jammin' Minki. We jammed this one out for 10 minutes before we decided that the bass line will be stuck in our heads forever so it was time to quit. Then while recording the vocals, graham jumped onto the piano and did some crazy piano-ing.

    Lyrics
    On the corner of 17th
    A strange lady came to me,
    Dressed all up in white
    From the tip of her toes
    To the back of her teeth.
    (She said)
    "Boy what are you doing in front of me?
    Go do what you must while your still 17."

    I told the lady in white
    I didn't get what she meant.
    I asked her to explain
    what she meant
    by what she said
    (She said)
    "Boy what are you trying to find out from me?
    Go find your self while your still 17."

    (Guitar/trumpet/piano fun!)

    I told her "Such a beautiful day
    should bring no complaints."
    I said, "but there's no way
    to see tomorrow's face."
    [Everybody now]
    I looked up at her and she smiled at me.
    She said, "Boy your pretty smart for a boy 17!"

    I never saw that lady again
    but I'll never forget what she said...
