Seventeen Lyrics - Aijuswanaseing - Musiq Soulchild

"seventeen" by Musiq Soulchild 

Five foot seven with light green eyes 

Body built like a woman over twenty-five 

Plus she pushed a whip that the average women couldn't get 

Unless she worked about two 9 to 5's 

Girly played the game just a little too mature 

She damn there 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 

She was only seventeen years old 

And I couldn't see her no more 

I ain't tryin to see myself locked up 

For knockin up some young joan 

How could I explain this situation to my family and all of my boys 

I'm sorry shorty but you got to get gone, yeah

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 ('cause) 

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 

She was just seventeen years old 

And I was dead wrong from the door 

I aint tryna see myself locked up for knocking off some young joan 

How could I explain the situation to my family and all of my boys 

Sorry shortie but you got to get gone
