Seventeen, seventeen

Cool and solid seventeen

Young enough to dance and sing

Old enough to get that swing



Past sixteen, just been kissed

Graduated and got that twist

Kind of love I can''t resist

At seventeen



Now, sloppy shirt, old blue jeans

Dirty shoes by all means

Patch of blonde, peroxide hair

Jukebox baby, ain''t no square



Seventeen, hot rod queen

Cutest girl you''ve ever seen

Tell the world I''m really keen

On my hepcat doll of seventeen
