Seventeen, you don't think that much about life You just live it Like kerosene dancing around a fire But you're in it So you jump right in Ain't afraid to fall And you give it all She got the best of me She broke my heart Now all that's left of me Is beating in this guitar Every night, a different town She follows me around So you get what's left of me She got the best of me I picked myself up off the floor And found something new worth living for And a, old dusty hand-me-down six string And a couple chords I'm getting over her A little more with every song So sing a-long She got the best of me She broke my heart Now all that's left of me Is beating in this guitar Every night, a different town She follows me around So you get what's left of me She got the best of me She got the best of me She got the best of me She got the best of me
