17 Lyrics
[Chorus]
Oh, she's only seventeen
Whine and whine and whine, weep over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers fighting, when's a baby gonna sleep?
Hidden ship that sails away
[Verse]
Said it's a culmination of a story
And a goodbye session
It's a tick of our time and the tick in her head
That made me feel so strange
So I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh, it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue
That made me wanna stay
[Chorus]
Oh, she's only seventeen
Whine and whine and whine, weep over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers fighting, when's a baby gonna sleep?
Hidden ship that sails away
[Verse]
Said it's a culmination of a story
And a goodbye session
It's a tick of our time and the tick in her head
That made me feel so strange
So I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh, it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue
That made me wanna stay
Oh, she's only seventeen
Whine and whine and whine, weep over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers fighting, when's a baby gonna sleep?
Hidden ship that sails away
[Verse]
Said it's a culmination of a story
And a goodbye session
It's a tick of our time and the tick in her head
That made me feel so strange
So I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh, it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue
That made me wanna stay
[Chorus]
Oh, she's only seventeen
Whine and whine and whine, weep over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers fighting, when's a baby gonna sleep?
Hidden ship that sails away
[Verse]
Said it's a culmination of a story
And a goodbye session
It's a tick of our time and the tick in her head
That made me feel so strange
So I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh, it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue
That made me wanna stay
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Outro]
I could call you baby, I could call you dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh, it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue
That made me wanna stay
[Outro]
I could call you baby, I could call you dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh, it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue
That made me wanna stay
