Musiq - Seventeen lyrics
rate me(Verse 1) <br />
Five foot seven with light green eyes <br />
Body built like a woman over twenty-five <br />
Plus she push the whip that the average women couldn't get <br />
Less she worked about two nine to five's <br />
Girly played the game just a little too mature <br />
She damn near had everything I was looking for <br />
But things seemed shady <br />
When I asked my lady to meet at the club <br />
She had trouble at the door <br />
That's when I found out that <br />
(Ohh) <br />
She was only seventeen years old <br />
And I couldn't see her no more <br />
(Ohh) <br />
<br />
(Chorus): <br />
I ain't tryin to see myself locked up <br />
For knockin up some young joan <br />
(Ohh) <br />
How could I explain this situation to my family <br />
And all of my boys <br />
(Ohh) <br />
I'm sorry shorty <br />
But you've got to get gone <br />
Yeah <br />
<br />
(Verse 2) <br />
I tried to cut her off <br />
But she wasn't having it <br />
She kept telling me her age didn't mean sh-- <br />
And that's when she started to cry <br />
Baby I need you in my life <br />
And without you I just couldn't handle it <br />
So what's a brother to do <br />
(Ohh) <br />
Either way I lose <br />
(So) <br />
I could just say my piece <br />
Or piss off her peace <br />
And talk it out with the boys in blue <br />
Cause when it comes down to it <br />
(Ohh) <br />
She was just seventeen years old <br />
And I was dead wrong from the door <br />
(Ohh) <br />
<br />
<br />
(Chorus) <br />
<br />
<br />
(Dial tone) <br />
(Keypad being dialed) <br />
(Line rings) <br />
