Seventeen Summers

Chorus

Rolling through the canyon with my whole crew

Seventeen summers and a sky so blue

Where we came from nobody knew

Still we made it through

Verse 1

Palm trees lean like they tired of standing

My uncle taught me how to drive on the coast

Said boy keep your eyes on the road ahead

The map don't show you what matters most

Pre-Chorus

Mama worked doubles

Papa worked nights

We built our little kingdom

Out of borrowed light

Chorus

Rolling through the canyon with my whole crew

Seventeen summers and a sky so blue

Where we came from nobody knew

Still we made it through

Verse 2

Cousins on the corner playing cards till dawn

Our block was a movie that we starred in

Some left for college some left too soon

I keep their names in every bar I'm on

Pre-Chorus

Mama worked doubles

Papa worked nights

We built our little kingdom

Out of borrowed light

Chorus

Rolling through the canyon with my whole crew

Seventeen summers and a sky so blue

Bridge

If you ever wonder where I get my stride

It's the ocean and the people by my side

(by my side)

Say it louder

(by my side)

Chorus

Rolling through the canyon with my whole crew

Seventeen summers and a sky so blue

Where we came from nobody knew

Still we made it through
