Nine Days

17 And 33
I can remember getting out never Back in my high school acting like damn fool Solid as woods under my feet A farther stretching past the concrete And I would accomplish more than I thought so Jump in the backseat of a camaro I could let go all that I can She would make me into a man Back in the country I was oh so young but much too old back then For leaving cap le moine On top of bale's of hay waiting for grandma's party we laughed and sang songs in the wind Do you remember in September I was 17 she was 33 Oh, where has my life gone Since she was naked we were wasted In my many dreams since then it seems funny I only get younger with each every summer But more of a man I feel that I am, am Dust off the radio down behind the backstop Kids with the top down drinkin in the back lot Lazy nights on through July heat Pretty good we got the cops beat SongtexteJammin in the garage pluggin in guitars Wearing Kiss makeup turning that shit up Dig my roots from the earth of this town I get my chance in the world to get out Back in the country I was oh so young but much too old back then For leaving cap le moine On top of bale's of hay waiting for grandma's party we laughed And sang songs in the wind Do you remember in September I was 17 she was 33 Oh, where has my life gone Since she was naked we were wasted In my many dreams since then it seems funny I only get younger with each every summer But more of a man I feel that I am, am A smile of a child is all (that) I was With freedom and wide open eyes Those memories are not forgotten I've gotta get back to my heart Do you remember in September Down on my knees falling autumn leaves Oh, she turned down my offer Then I went crazy but I made it in a concert scene Through a Springsteen lyric I'll only grow older if I keep looking over My shoulder and then I know who I am Do you remember 17 and 33 Do you remember concert tees and record sleeves Do you remember 17 and 33 Oh, I only get younger With each every summer Just stuck in my heart Aus Songtexte Mania
