Текст песни 17 - Rick James

A little girl came up to me, acting young and shy
A look of curiosity was flashing in her eyes
She had seen my face before and thought she knew me well
So I said "Shall we talk some more, you'll come to my hotel"

She was only 17, 17
But she was sexy
She was only 17, 17
She said she loved me
17 years old

17 years old

How we talked all through the night and never even touched
Even talked of love and life, I wanted her that much
She said she'd read a magazine that said I was a freak
"You'll never know now, little girl, until you take a peak"

She was only 17, 17
And she was sexy
She was only 17, 17
But she was young and fine and oh, so tender
Would I break down tonight and surrender?
This young girl, this sweet thing, I just can't wait
No, I mustn't do this, she's almost jail bait

17 years old
17 years old

A little girl came up to me, acting young and shy
A look of curiosity was flashing in her eyes
She had seen my face before and thought she knew me well
So I said, "Shall we talk some more, you'll come to my hotel"

She was only 17, 17
But she was sexy
She was only 17, 17
And she was young, and fine, and oh, so tender
Would I break down tonight and surrender?
Yeah

17 years old, sexy, sexy
17 years old, sexy, sexy
17 years old, sexy, sexy
17 years old, sexy, sexy
17 years old, sexy, sexy

17 and she was you and fine and oh so tender
Would I break down tonight and surrender?
This young girl, this sweet thing, I just can't wait
No, I shouldn't do this, she's almost jail bait

Come here, young girl
17 years old, 17 and sexy
17 years old, 17 and sexy
17 years old
She was only 17
17 and sexy (just a baby in her teens)
17 years old (she's my baby and a friend)
17 and sexy (sexy, sexy, sexy)

(Ooh, baby, baby) 17 and sexy
She was only 17
17 and sexy (just a baby in teens, yeah)
17 years old
17 years old, 17 and sexy (sexy, sexy, sexy)
(Ooh, baby, baby) 17 years old
17 and sexy

17 years old, 17 and sexy, ooh, baby, baby
17 years old, 17 and sexy
17 years old, 17 and sexy, ooh, baby, baby
17 years old, 17 years old, 17 years old
