I was only seventeen 我才17

Livin' out a reckless dream 活着了一个鲁莽的梦想

Ridin' those summer streets 坐车的夏日街头

To the corner of high and thirteen 到的高和13的角

Me and other VD boys 我和其他性病的男生

Runnin' too wild too bored 天边太猖狂太无聊

Lookin' for the grown man's toys 看着他的成年男子的玩具

Out at that corner store 出在那个街角的商店

Well they threw the money to me and somebody's ID 那么，他们扔了钱给我，有些人的ID

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

I was in the parking lot scared as hell 我当时在停车场害怕得要命

Sent the sixteen dollars down a wishing well 送16元上下许愿井

Two bottles of wine those red and blue lights 两瓶酒的红灯和蓝灯

Took a trip down town for the very first time 拿下小镇之旅的第一次

Watching my whole life flash before my eyes 之前我的眼睛注视着我的整个生命闪光

She was from across the tracks 她是来自全国各地的轨道

With a private school laugh 与私立学校的笑

We were both falling too fast 我们俩都下降得太快

Down a river that wouldn't last 沿河而下，将不会持续太久

It was only one night and our first time 这只是一个晚上，我们第一次

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

I was in the parking lot scared as hell 我当时在停车场害怕得要命

Oh it was a lifetime ago 哦，那是上辈子的事

And I prayed for mercy 我祈求怜悯
