Letra Sweet 16 Uncle Kracker

Sweet 16

Yesterday we were coming of age
Everything brand new
Just a boy and a girl
Us against the world
We didn't have a thing to lose
Blue jeans Friday night lights and in the blink of an eye
We came alive as our innocence died underneath the September sky

And now sweet 16's 34
We traded in a drop top hot rod Chevy
For a 4-door Ford
And those sweet memories are forever more
A lot of things changed but I love it just the same or even more than I did before

Rat races and places to be turned to nothing to prove
Jäger fifths are now grocery lists and their laced with some honey do's
New shoes and backpacks for school, ain't we livin' the dream
We were breaking the rules now were making the rules
And we're somewhere in between
Somewhere between a dream and a compromise
Everyday reminds me how time flies

And now sweet 16's 34
We traded in a drop top hot rod Chevy
For a 4-door Ford
And those sweet memories are forever more
A lot of things changed but I love it just the same or even more than I did before

You were gonna be an actress
I was gonna be a big rockstar
House in the hills, everything but bills
Champagne and caviar
Photoshoots, first class flights, we'd sleep all day, and rage all night
Just you and I, living the life
Yeah

We got no Oscar, we got no grammy
But we got us, friends, and family
The wheels keep spinning, just a loving and a living
And it's better than it was before

And now sweet 16's 34
We traded in a drop top hot rod Chevy
For a 4-door Ford
And those sweet memories are forever more
A lot of things changed but I love it just the same or even more than I did before

And now sweet 16's 34
The wheels keep spinning, just a loving and a living
And it's better than it was before
