Sixteen lyrics

[Verse 1]

Take a left here boy, take it slow

Don't get distracted by that radio

I just rolled my eyes and I said, "Daddy, I know"

I'm fifteen, I ain't green like some ol' ten year old

[Chorus]

What I wouldn't give to be sixteen, wild and free

Cruisin' up and down main in my F-150

Roll the windows down, bass too loud From this burnt CD

I'll be right where I wanna be when I'm sixteen

Sixteen, yeah

[Verse 2]

Now that I can drive, finally feel alive, but I got this curfew

Sneakin' in late, smelling like my girlfriend's perfume

People talk about college and knowledge and that's alright

But all I'm thinkin' 'bout is an unsupervised Saturday night

[Chorus 2]

What I wouldn't give to be eighteen, wild and free

Buzzin' off a can of the grizzly wintergreen

Lookin' old enough to pull off this fake ID

I'll be right where I wanna be

When I'm eighteen

Eighteen, yeah

[Bridge]

I'm old enough to smoke

I'm old enough to vote

But they turn me away when I go to the Cotton Eyed Joe

They say the grass is always greener

And I believe that's right

But my friends are off to Vegas, they're leavin' me behind

[Chorus 3]

What I wouldn't give to be twenty one, wild and free

Open up a cold one and drink it legally

Chase a bunch of girls, go see the world

Let my wild streak run

I'll be right where I wanna be

When I'm twenty one, twenty one

(woah, when I'm twenty one)

(yeah, when I'm twenty one, it'll be alright

(yeah, it'll be alright, when I'm twenty one)

[Outro]

Now I'm twenty five and I'm drinkin' wine with my wife at home

Got a couple of dogs and a couple songs on the radio

And we sit around and we laugh about how we used to be

When all we cared about was turning sixteen
