Young and Free
Young and free
what we're supposed to be
They're out all night in risque heels
shootin whiskey till noone feels
Dancin with men twice they're age
embracing the power of youth, center stage
No cares in the world, except about boys
how they look, proper poise
Stumbling home mid summers eve
best friends lock arms, young and free
My friends turned 21 that summer
while I became your unwed mother
I may have missed that part of life
I may not have done all of this right
but theres not one thing I would trade
I'd go back and do it all the same
I'm young, but not free
your little blue eyes capture all of me
I look at you, you're all I see
and theres nowhere else I'd rather be
