Corey Smith - Twenty-One - Sözleri

When I was only seventeen, couldn't wait for twenty one 


I'd hang around on Clayton Street in the bars there gettin' drunk 


A baseball cap and a fake ID would get me in the clubs 


Then I would dance with the college girls and lie about who I was 


I'd say "I'm pre-Med. here at UGA, live on Milledge Avenue. 


I was raised over in Buckhead, I drive a BMW." 





I was breakin' hearts and takin' names and numbers just for fun. 


Stealin' kisses wishin' I was twenty one. 





When Thursdays came and pocket change would quickly disappear 


Upstairs at Lowry's Tavern, we'd pay a nickel for every beer 


Shootin' pool, smokin' cigarettes with a dizzy head and a grin 


Four A.M. on a school night, still hangin' out with my friends 


One hour's sleep on a dirty couch, no shower, off to school 


Smellin' just like a brewery with a bad hangover too 





The teachers all would hassle me: "Stay awake, pay attention" 


I was catchin' hell, wishin' I was twenty one. 





The youngest one of all my friends, I didn't act my age 


Too cool for the football games and the homecoming parades 





Now I look back and I have to smile, cause boy it was fun 


Bein' seventeen, wishin' I was twenty one 





Now I'm only twenty six, feelin' more like fourty three 


My hairline's disappearing, and I never get ID'd 


My clothes are out of fashion, no I'm not cool anymore 


In the bed by ten o'clock each night, and up at half-past four 


Still I go down to that college town when the Bulldogs play at home 


I drink keg beer from a trash can til the whole damn thing is gone 





Then I look at all those college girls so innocent and young 


And I just check 'em out, and say "Damn... I wish I was twenty one"
