We don't need your money, no, to get by
Don't need the high life
Wake up, get dressed, what the weather says
Look at me, I'm so blessed
You know I got things to do
But can you wait a day or two?
We don't need your money, no, to get by
Don't need the high life

Said I'm way too young to know my mind
And I ain't seen nothing yet
But I just wanna enjoy my time
Let's forget about the rest

Let me be, yeah
Won't you let me be seventeen?
Let me be, yeah
Won't you let me be seventeen?

We got our own way of doing things
Queens and kings
Sunrise, midnight, my battery died
But I got no need to check the time
'Cause I got no place to be
No, nobody is waiting on, waiting on me
We got our own way of doing things
Queens and kings

Said I'm way too young to know my mind
(They say I'm way too young)
And I ain't seen nothing yet
(Ain't seen nothing yet)
But I just wanna enjoy my time
(Enjoy my time) let's forget about the rest
(Forget about the rest)

Let me be, yeah
Won't you let me be seventeen?
Let me be, yeah
Won't you let me be seventeen?

Sometimes I wonder where the time goes
Sometimes I wonder, yeah, yeah, I wonder
Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever know
Sometimes I wonder, yeah, yeah, I wonder

If you let me be
Won't you let me be seventeen?
Let me be, let me be let me be seventeen
Won't you let me be, let me be
Let me be seventeen?

Oh, you gotta let me be, let me be
Let me be seventeen
