Dancin’ to Sweet 17

[Verse 1]
He grew up in the sunset, the wind at his back
And he longed to remember some things in our past
We're both over thirty, but still seventeen
Just trying to hold on to some old high school dreams

[Chorus]
Well there've been women and lovers, and lots of miles in between
There've been barrooms and bedrooms, and lots of nights with Jim Beam
Been Tequila sunrises, times I wish I'd never seen
But it's hard to act thirty, when your dancin' to sweet seventeen

[Verse 2]
Now there's two wives and six kids, and miles in between us
And no time for us anymore
All the wild nights and bar fights, and ditches and blue lights
Are a million dark nights from before

[Chorus]
Well there've been women and lovers, and lots of miles in between
There've been barrooms and bedrooms, and lots of nights with Jim Beam
Been Tequila sunrises, times I wish I'd never seen
But it's hard to act thirty, when your dancin' to sweet seventeen

[Outro]
No it's hard to act thirty, when your dancin' to sweet seventeen
