KINGS OF LEON
"17"
(Caleb Followill / Jared Followill / Matthew Followill / Nathan Followill)

[Chorus:]
Oh she's only 17
Whine and wine and wound up over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers frightened and when's a baby going to sleep
Hidden ship that sails away

Said it's a culmination of a story and a goodbye session
It's the tick of our time and the tick in her hair
That made me feel so strange
So I could call you baby I could call you dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh it's the rolling of her Spanish tongue
That made me want to stay

[Chorus:]
Oh she's only 17
Wind and wind and wound up over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers frightened when's a baby going to sleep

Oh she's only 17
Wind and wind and wound up over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the scene
Brothers frightened when's a baby going to sleep

Hidden ship that sails away
Said it's a culmination of a story and a goodbye session
It's the tick of our time and the tick in her hair
That made me feel so strange
So I could call you baby I could call you dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh it's the rolling of her Spanish tongue
That made me want to stay

[Outro:]
I could call you baby I could call you dammit
It's a one in a million
Oh it's the rolling of her Spanish tongue
That made me want to stay
