Corey Smith - Twenty One Lyrics
When I was only 17 couldn't wait for twenty oneI'd hang around on Clayton St in the bars there getting drunkA baseball cap and a fake I'd would get me in the clubsThen I would dance with the college girls and lie about who I wasWell, I'm premed here at UGALive on Millage AvenueI was raised over in BuckheadI drive a BMWI was breaking heartsAnd taking names and numbers just for funStealing kisses wishing I was twenty oneWell Thursdays cameAnd pocket change would quickly disappearUpstairs at Lowry's TavernWe'd pay a nickel for the beerShooting pool, smoking cigarettesWith a dizzy head and a grin4 A.M. on a school nightStill hanging out with my friendsOne hour sleep on a dirty coachNo shower off to schoolSmelling just like a breweryWith a bad hangover tooThe teachers all would hassle me"Stay awake Pay Attention"I was catching hell wishing I was twenty oneThe youngest one of all my friendsI didn't act my ageToo cool for the football games and the homecoming paradesNow I look back and have to smileCause boy it was funBeing seventeen wishing I was twenty oneNow I'm only twenty sixFeeling more like forty threeMy hair lines disappearingAnd I never get IDedMy clothes are out of fashionNo I'm not cool anymoreIn the bed by ten o clock each nightAnd up at half past fourStill I go downTo that college townWhen the Bulldogs play at homeI drink keg beer from a trash can'Till the whole damn thing is goneThen I look at all those college girls so innocent and youngI just check them out and say "DamnI wish I was twenty one"
