(Verse 1)

Five foot seven with light green eyes

Body built like a woman over twenty-five

Plus she push the whip that the average women couldn't get

Less she worked about two nine to five's

Girly played the game just a little too mature

She damn near had everything I was looking for

But things seemed shady

When I asked my lady to meet at the club

She had trouble at the door

That's when I found out that

(Ohh)

She was only seventeen years old

And I couldn't see her no more

(Ohh)



(Chorus):

I ain't tryin to see myself locked up

For knockin up some young joan

(Ohh)

How could I explain this situation to my family

And all of my boys

(Ohh)

I'm sorry shorty

But you've got to get gone

Yeah



(Verse 2)

I tried to cut her off

But she wasn't having it

She kept telling me her age didn't mean sh--

And that's when she started to cry

Baby I need you in my life

And without you I just couldn't handle it

So what's a brother to do

(Ohh)

Either way I lose

(So)

I could just say my piece

Or piss off her peace

And talk it out with the boys in blue

Cause when it comes down to it

(Ohh)

She was just seventeen years old

And I was dead wrong from the door

(Ohh)





(Chorus)
