Luyện nghe bài hát At Seventeen

I learned the at seventeen
That was meant for beauty queens
And high school girls with clear-skinned
Who married and then retired

The I never knew
The Friday night charades of
Were spent on one more
At seventeen I learned the

And those of us ravaged faces
in the social graces
Desperately remained at
Inventing lovers on the

Who called to say, "Come dance me"
And murmured vague
It isn't all it at seventeen

A brown-eyed girl in
Whose name I could pronounce
Said, "Pity, please, the ones who
'Cause only get what they deserve"

And the rich hometown queen
Marries what she needs
a guarantee of company
And haven for the

So remember who win the game
Lose the love they to gain
In debentures of quality and integrity

small town eyes will gape at you
In dull when payment due
Exceeds received at seventeen

To those of us who the pain
Of valentines that never
And those names were never called
When sides for basketball

It was ago and far away
The was younger than today
When dreams were all they for free
To ugly duckling like me

We all the game and when we dare
To cheat at solitaire
Inventing lovers on the
Repenting other unknown

call and say, "Come dance with me"
And vague obscenities
At ugly girls me at seventeen
